Family Attorney Tampa Gary Dolgin Explains 2023 Child Support Laws For Adult Dependent Children

Posted on Author By family-divorce-attorney

Family Attorney Tampa – Gary Dolgin explains the new child support laws in Florida, effective July 1, 2023 regarding adult dependent children.

“Hi, I’m Gary Dolgin, Board Certified Expert in Marital and Family Law, serving the Tampa Bay community since 1993.

There were a lot of laws that changed this year in Florida.

One of the laws that changed has to deal with supporting children past the age of 18.

Ordinarily, parents are only required to pay child support until their children reach the age of majority.

However, if you have a child who has a physical or a mental incapacity in which they will not be able to take care of themselves after the age of 18, you should request a court to find them to be a dependent child before they reach the age of 18.

Child support is no longer determined by child support guidelines for adult dependent children, but is based on their needs and their parents’ financial resources and ability to pay.”

Best Family Law Attorney Tampa Gary Dolgin Explains New Florida Law Regarding Timesharing As Of July 1 2023

Posted on Author By family-divorce-attorney

Effective July 1, 2023 significant changes to timesharing laws in Florida have been made.

There is now a presumption that equal timesharing is in the best interest of all children.

However, that presumption can be overcome by proving your case by a preponderance of the evidence.

The new law states:

“Unless otherwise provided in this section or agreed to by the parties, there is a rebuttable presumption that equal time-sharing of a minor child is in the best interests of the minor child. To rebut this presumption, a party must prove by a preponderance of the evidence that equal timesharing is not in the best interests of the minor child. Except when a time-sharing schedule is agreed to by the parties and approved by the court, the court must evaluate all of the factors set forth in subsection (3) and make specific written findings of fact when creating or modifying a timesharing schedule.”

Here at The Law Offices of Gary S. Dolgin, we have been helping mothers and fathers with child custody for over 32 years in the Tampa area.

We have also been committed to protecting children’s best interests while helping to advocate for their parent’s rights.

If you have any questions about the new laws which have taken effect July 1, 2023, we are happy to help you.

To schedule a child custody consultation with Gary Dolgin, give us a call at (813) 999-2772, and it will be our pleasure to help you.
