You need to pursue a modification of the Final Judgment Dissolution of Marriage. Sole parental custody, with mom getting supervised visitation, should be pursued. I would probably also pursue an Emergency Motion For Temporary Relief, whereby you would seek immediate temporary sole custody, and supervised visitation for mom.

If you opt to proceed without the assistance of counsel, be aware that you will not be entitled to a �do over� if things go badly.

The above information is provided without any consideration/payment having been received, and without full knowledge of all of the facts.

An internet inquiry is no substitution for an in-office consultation with an attorney.

If your situation falls within the Greater Tampa Bay area, I would be happy to schedule you for a no obligation half hour office consultation. The main office is in Dunedin, with a satellite location in Tampa.

Feel free to Google me.

Good Luck, Elliot Goldstein
