Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Legally separate myself from parents

My parents have been abusive and threatening. My parents have been very cruel to me and my husband. I want to legally separate, or divorce, myself from them. I do not want to be legally tied to them in any way. I do not wish to be legally listed as their child - I want none of their inheritance or anything that has to do with them. I don't want them to be able to claim me as their child and I do not want them to have any legal claim where my children are concerned. They have physically and emotionally abused me and I just want to find a legal way to get them out of my life. Please help!!!!!!!!!

I agree with Mr. Field. The only other thing that I could suggest is that you create a will to make sure that your parents have no control over your children should something unfortunate happen to you and your husband.

Re: Legally separate myself from parents

Since you are married, you are already emancipated. Your parents have no more legal control over you than anybody else. Consult with a local attorney about getting a restraining order.
