This special and extremely helpful area of the law is one that is promoted by the Anne V. Alper, Attorney at Law in compliance with the laws of the State of Florida. It is a relatively new area of Family Law and not all attorneys are exactly sure HOW to use Parent Coordinators or whether even to use their services at all.
Because our Florida Laws cover Parenting Coordination, many people understand and agree that even after the dissolution of marriage, or even after the break up, some parents simply cannot agree with one another about what it is that would be best for their child or children. It is then that the Parent Coordinator gets involved in the process.
The purpose of a Parent Coordinator is to provide a resource to the parents, a role that the Courts cannot effectively manage on their own. The Judge in any particular family law case works with THOUSANDS of cases on a daily basis and cannot be expected to be the go between you and your ex-partner. With that in mind, please review part of the Parent Coordination Statute, below.
If this alternative is what you think your family has been lacking, please contact Anne V. Alper, Attorney at Law at your earliest convenience.

(1) PURPOSE.—The purpose of parenting coordination is to provide a child-focused alternative dispute resolution process whereby a parenting coordinator assists the parents in creating or implementing a parenting plan by facilitating the resolution of disputes between the parents by providing education, making recommendations, and, with the prior approval of the parents and the court, making limited decisions within the scope of the court’s order of referral.
(2) REFERRAL.—In any action in which a judgment or order has been sought or entered adopting, establishing, or modifying a parenting plan, except for a domestic violence proceeding under chapter 741, and upon agreement of the parties, the court’s own motion, or the motion of a party, the court may appoint a parenting coordinator and refer the parties to parenting coordination to assist in the resolution of disputes concerning their parenting plan.
