Parenting Plans and Time-Sharing in Palm Beach County Divorce Cases

Florida requires a parenting plan in every divorce involving minor children, specifying each parent's time-sharing schedule, decision-making authority over education, healthcare, and extracurricular activities, and protocols for communication. For Wellington families where one or both parents have demanding travel or competition schedules associated with the equestrian world, building a parenting plan that is both realistic and in the child's best interests requires thoughtful attention to the practical realities of each parent's life.

Brodzki Jacobs develops parenting plans with a focus on workability — arrangements that reflect how the family actually functions rather than idealized schedules that create conflict from the start. Where the parents can agree, the firm helps document those terms in a form the court will approve. Where agreement is not possible, the firm advocates for a parenting plan that serves the child's best interests under the factors Florida courts apply.
