One of the worst in Palm Beach.

Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: FL2713
Rating:1.0
Comments:
This judge has no clue what the current law is in family matters. He ignores the requirements of the Florida Statutes by using, for example, Palm Beach model visitation schedules as opposed to parenting plans. This isn't rocket science and parenting plans have been required by law for a couple of years now. This judge needs to take some CLE classes...NOW.

The worst judge in Palm Beach County. No due process, very slanted decisions - time to retire!
I have never been a litigant in his courtroom - this is based on what I have observed as a court watcher. He has destroyed numerous families.
