Protecting Your Parental Rights & Relationship With Your Children

Your ongoing involvement in your child’s life is critical during and after divorce. Florida law supports continued, meaningful relationships between children and both parents, but misunderstandings and anxiety around the process are common for fathers.

Our firm explains how time-sharing and parenting plans work according to Florida statutes and the specific practices of the Palm Beach County Circuit Court. Local judges look at many factors, such as each parent’s relationship with the child, the ability to co-parent, and the child’s unique needs. Importantly, courts do not give preference based on gender; your involvement as a parent is what matters most.

Creating Parenting Plans That Work

We guide fathers in preparing parenting plans that reflect their daily routines, shared decision-making, and their commitment to staying present in their child’s life. By focusing on the details that matter, our team works to ensure your rights as a father are clearly represented to the court and in any negotiations.

Our Collaborative, Child-Centered Strategy in Jupiter, FL

Collaborative Law offers many fathers an alternative to traditional adversarial court proceedings. This approach allows families to resolve disputes outside the courtroom, with all parties and their attorneys (and sometimes other professionals) committed to reaching an agreement that puts the child’s needs first.

Key benefits of our collaborative, child-centered strategy include:

  • A confidential process that keeps sensitive family matters private
  • Less stress and fewer delays compared to court litigation
  • Customized solutions designed for the unique circumstances of Jupiter families
  • Reduced emotional impact on children and parents alike

Our deep familiarity with Palm Beach County Circuit Court procedures ensures we can guide you through this approach efficiently. Fathers concerned about privacy, stability, and their child's well-being consistently find collaborative law to be a strong option.

"Genius divorce lawyer"

John Schutz is a brilliant lawyer. Not only did Mr. Schutz do an excellent job cleaning up the mess from the previous lawyer, he in my estimation was key in me ultimately obtaining a very good outcome. I had a very contentious divorce and the opposing lawyer was very unprofessional and somewhat abusive. Mr. Schutz through his professionalism and excellent people skills was able to reign in the opposing attorney's unprofessional conduct. Mr. Schutz ran circles around the opposing attorney as he was always prepared and was quick on his feet. He is well worth the money in my opinion. Due to his skill and the ability to outclass the opposing attorney, a trial was avoided which ultimately would have been far more costly. Highly recommend.
