    What Rights Does an Unmarried Father Have in Florida?

    Unmarried fathers in Florida often feel unsure about where they stand legally—especially when it comes to custody, time-sharing, and decision-making for their children. In this episode of When Split Happens, Jay Henderlite, a Jacksonville family law attorney with Sasso Guerrero & Henderlite, breaks down what rights unmarried fathers do—and do not—have under Florida law. Jay explains why fathers do not automatically receive parental rights at birth when the parents are unmarried, and why establishing paternity is the critical first step. Without paternity, a father has no enforceable right to custody, visitation, or involvement in major decisions. Once paternity is legally established, fathers may seek time-sharing, shared parental responsibility, and equal consideration in custody matters. This episode covers how Florida courts handle parenting cases involving unmarried parents, including how paternity is established, whether mothers are favored in custody decisions, when 50/50 time-sharing may be appropriate, and how parental responsibility and child support are legally connected. Jay also discusses why delaying action can make it harder to change an existing parenting arrangement—particularly for fathers in Jacksonville and Northeast Florida, where courts prioritize stability and a child’s best interests. If you are an unmarried father with questions about paternity, custody, or child support in Florida, this episode provides practical guidance to help you understand your rights and options.

    Do You Have to Be Separated Before Divorce in Florida?

    In this episode of When Split Happens, Jacksonville family law attorney Jay Henderlite of Sasso Guerrero & Henderlite answers a question that surprises many couples: Do you have to be legally separated before filing for divorce in Florida? The short answer is no—but Florida’s divorce laws have important rules every spouse should understand before filing. Jay explains why Florida does not recognize legal separation, how the state’s no-fault divorce system works, and what legally replaces separation under Florida law. Listeners will learn the two requirements for filing a divorce in Florida—the six-month residency rule and the standard of “irretrievable breakdown of the marriage.” This episode also covers common concerns for couples who are living apart but not yet divorced, including: Whether living separately affects divorce, custody, or time-sharing decisionsHow income, debts, and marital assets are treated during separationWhat happens if one spouse disagrees that the marriage is overWhether Florida recognizes trial separations or separation agreementsHow parents can establish temporary support or custody without filing for divorceWhen a petition for support unconnected with dissolution may be appropriateJay also discusses how informal separation can impact parenting arrangements, financial rights, and future court decisions—especially for families in Jacksonville and Northeast Florida.
