Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Military Custody Battle
I am currently deployed with the military, my ex-wife has temp custody till I am back in the states. In the agreement, she is not allowed to take her out of the state of FL, but she has not only taken her out of sate, but out of the country- to Europe to be with her new ''boyfriend'' she met online. Also in the agreement my ex-wife is suppose to bring our daughter to visit my sister every saturday so that I may still have phone contact each week, and for the last two months my ex-wife has refused to do so. My lawyer says there is nothing she can do, is she wrong? What can be done?

Family law and custody situations are very fact specific, so it is better to advise a person after getting all of the facts. If you think getting a second opinion is a good idea contact our office. I would suggest filing pleadings and then scheduling a hearing.

You can ask the court to enforce the current visitation order. I'm not sure why your current lawyer doesn't think you/she can do that. Your ex can be held in contempt if she does not comply with a court order...
