Family law matters require more than legal knowledge. They require judgment, preparation, discretion, and a clear understanding of what is at stake for your children, finances, and long-term stability.
Many family law disputes center around children. If your case involves time-sharing, child support, custody modifications, or parental rights, it is important to work with an attorney who understands Florida family law and how courts approach these issues.
We help clients with:
Divorce is the legal process of ending a marriage and resolving important matters such as property division, child custody, child support, alimony, and parental responsibilities. Every divorce is unique, and the outcome depends on the specific circumstances of each family. Understanding your rights and obligations under Florida law can help you make informed decisions and work toward a fair resolution.
Child support can have a significant impact on both parents and children. Our attorneys help clients establish, enforce, and modify child support obligations based on the facts of the case and Florida law.
Relocation cases can be especially challenging when one parent wishes to move with a child. We help clients understand the legal standards involved and pursue the best possible outcome.
Establishing paternity can be essential for determining parental rights, child support obligations, and time-sharing arrangements. Our firm helps clients address these issues clearly and effectively.
Parenting plans and time-sharing arrangements should reflect the best interests of the child while also protecting the parent’s rights. We represent parents in custody disputes, parenting plan negotiations, and modification proceedings.
Helping families resolve disputes through skilled mediation. In many Florida family law cases, mediation is a required step before a case proceeds to trial. Mediation provides an opportunity for both parties to work toward resolving disagreements with the assistance of a neutral third party, often reducing conflict, saving time, and avoiding the expense of prolonged litigation.
As a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator, Steven J. Glaros has completed the training and certification required to facilitate family law mediation in accordance with Florida's standards.
His experience in family law provides valuable insight into the legal and practical issues that commonly arise during divorce, child custody, parenting plans, alimony, and other family-related matters.
Family Attorney
Certified Mediator
Family law mediation is a confidential process where a neutral mediator helps spouses or parents communicate, identify disagreements, explore possible solutions, and work toward a mutually acceptable agreement.
Florida courts frequently require mediation before a contested divorce proceeds to trial. Successful mediation may help families avoid lengthy court proceedings and create solutions tailored to their circumstances.
Working with a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator means choosing a professional who has met certification requirements established by the Florida Supreme Court.
Mediation is a confidential process that often allows families to resolve disputes more efficiently than litigation. Many participants appreciate the opportunity to reduce conflict, control costs, and reach practical agreements while maintaining greater control over the outcome.
When agreements are reached through mediation, families often avoid prolonged litigation while maintaining greater control over the outcome.
Whether you are beginning the divorce process or attempting to resolve post-judgment family law issues, mediation can be an effective step toward reaching a fair and lasting agreement.
