- Child SupportHowever, judges still may assume things like dads who have big careers aren’t able to devote enough time to children, or that dads are clueless about taking care of toddlers. Bias definitely still exists even if it is subconscious/more subtle! If not checked, this bias can mean that your children may not get to live with you or that you may not get to see them as much. It can also mean that you may end up paying more child support than you should based on numbers and facts alone.
- Child Custody and VisitationContact Florida child custody lawyer Jeffrey Feulner to schedule a consultation with a family law attorney who advocates for the father’s perspective in child timesharing (custody) disputes.
- AdoptionStep-parent adoptions can be an emotional and tricky process. For a non-biological parent to adopt a child, the biological parent or parents must first give up all of their parental rights to the child including but not limited to visitation and decision making.
- PaternitySome men wish to assert their parental rights if they did father a child. Others need help disputing their alleged identification as fathers of children they do not believe they are responsible for. Contact Jeffrey Feulner, paternity law attorney, for thoughtful, informative legal advice and representation, no matter which perspective you bring to a paternity action.
- Premarital AgreementThis is usually a shortcut to a prenuptial agreement that does not hold up under the scrutiny of the court. Prenuptial agreements generally apply to financial matters, not solely personal matters. It is usually wise to protect yourself and your spouse with a prenuptial agreement that strengthens your marriage.
- Spousal SupportOccasionally, if the relationship between a husband and wife is extremely contentious, the wife and her attorney may employ dishonest tactics to paint the husband in a bad light and sway the judge further in their favor. This can result in men being required to pay more than what’s actually fair when it comes to alimony (spousal support). This can also result in men not being able to be as involved in their children’s lives.
- Legal SeparationPost-nuptial agreements are legally-enforceable contracts signed by couples any time after the marriage. Like a prenup, post-nuptial agreements outline how a couple’s income and assets are to be addressed (and divided) in the event of a legal separation or a divorce.
- AnnulmentThe process for terminating a domestic partnership varies between states. In some jurisdictions, ending a domestic partnership is as simple as filing a Notice of Termination with the Secretary of State. In other jurisdictions, domestic partners must dissolve their relationship through divorce or annulment proceedings.

- MisdemeanorsContempt of Court is also available in the criminal justice system. … 588.20, there is both felony and misdemeanor contempt of court. A felony contempt of court occurs when a subpoenaed party “knowingly and willfully” disobeys a subpoena in a crime of violence case (e.g. domestic assault cases)
- Assault
- Restraining OrderNot anti-women; in fact, most men’s divorce law firms will encourage clients to treat their spouses or ex-spouses politely and respectfully, and to cooperate with them as much as possible. Otherwise, with the bias in family court, any negative treatment could lead to restraining orders, sole custody for the mother, and financial penalties.
