There is no automatic rule that a party that recently attempted suicide, or was just released from a mental health facility, cannot be awarded custody. While that party would likely be facing an uphill battle, there is nothing to stop them from pursuing this.
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.
