Q. My 16 year old son came to me and said he doesn't want live with his mom anymore. Does he have a say?

June 21, 2017

A: No. However, should you pursue a modification action, you may also file a motion for the Court to authorize an in camera testimony of the minor child as to his preference. So a minor cannot just be brought to Court to express his time-sharing preference but a Court may allow such testimony based on a properly filed Motion. I suggest that you consult with an attorney on the best course of action after addressing all the pertinent facts. All the best.

Q. i have a child with someone in fl, in a new relationship and have a newborn. Can we move for a better job opportunity?

June 21, 2017

A: Based on your post, it appears that you will be able to move as the father of your first child has no rights to the child. However, please be aware that in the event he files a paternity action within 6 months of your move, you may be required to return the child to Florida.

Q. Can the father of my children take my kids without a court order?

June 20, 2017

A: Based on your post, by default you have all the time-sharing rights and all the decision-making authority over your children. Until the Father pursues an action for paternity, he has no rights to the children. Should the Father remove the children from your care, you should pursue an Emergency Verified Motion for Child Pick-Up Order. All the best.
