A: You need to file a paternity case in the court where mother and child live.
Stephen Arnold Black , B. Elaine Jones , Bruce Alexander Minnick and Henry George Ferro agree with this answer
A:
You need to consult with and retain a family law attorney. In the state of Florida you have no rights to your child if you were not married to the mother. You will have to file a Petition for Paternity and get the family law court involved to assist you in establishing a time-sharing parenting plan. Most Justia attorneys offer a free initial consultation. Call one of us today. Good luck.
Sincerely,
B. Elaine Jones, Esq.
