Re: Help!!!
To modify a custody order, her ex will need to prove that since the order, there has been a substantial change in the circumstances of the parties, such that it would be in the best interests of the children to change the time sharing arrangement. That is very tough to prove, and the fact that he has remarried would not be enough.
Please have your sister call me. While I am located in north St. Petersburg (just across the Howard Franklin Bridge, I frequently represent clients in such matters, in Tampa.
