Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

my son and his girl have recently moved in together. she has a 7yr old daughter. she isn't divorced and she and her ex made their own visitation etc. He has a girlfriend as well and their living together. His mother is the deciding factor in all things for the daughter (the mother believes). its creating issues with the Girlfriend and the Ex. He has told her this evening she will never see her daughter again and his Mother will be taking care of the daughter. this poor girl is in a panic... there is no court papers at this point. the Mother owns a daycare, she has recently told our son's girlfriend that on her days she will not take her grand-daughter anymore. so she (the girlfriend) decided to place her in after school program on her days. this is what has created the issue. they (ex and his mother) said she will NOT go to after school she will pay the Grandmother to watch her, and he will not take her there tomorrow and she will not see her again. What if anything, can she do at this point? the school said they can not take direction from her (the girlfriend) that the Grandmother can not pick the daughter up from school. i am gathering because there are no court documents. but basically they said they couldn't forbid someone to pick her up. (what if a stranger did)...anyway.... this young lady needs to get things under control. she filed for divorce a while ago, has the packet took the child course require and the ex never did what he was suppose to. can she just finish the process without him? or does she have to wait years until he decides he wants to be married again and decides to take the course and do what he needs to. there are many issues and its getting progressively worse. I just want to help direct them, to get an Attorney, but in the mean time be able to give her something to calm her down. any advise is greatly appreciated. thank you.

Why are you wasting time on the net? Get her to an attorney immediately! If this situation is as bad as you describe you will have a major custody battle.

Filling out "the packet from the clerk" will not complete the cas, you need to retain counsel now.
