Do courts automatically favor the mother in a time-sharing (child custody) hearing?
Not necessarily; a mother shouldn’t automatically assume she will get majority time-sharing (custody) in a divorce, and many fathers successfully win majority time-sharing (custody) of their children. The most important factor, whether you are a mother or a father, is being able to demonstrate that you are the most suitable guardian of your children. An experienced Tampa child custody lawyer can help by offering proof of your parenting fitness in the areas considered most crucial by the court.
