Q: Is it legal for me to go get my child and bring her to my state of residency
I left Florida to better my lifestyle and environment of my child. I decided to leave her with her father for a couple of months and now for the third time, it’s time for me to go get her and her is telling me I am not allowed. Is this legal and what can I do to get her?
A: Additional facts are necessary to determine whether you are allowed to take the minor child out of the State of Florida. Are there any current Orders in place? Were you and the Father married at the time of conception? You will need to reach out to an attorney for a consultation to determine the appropriate course of action.
