Pamela Fero moved to South Florida in 1991 when she was hired by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as an Air Traffic Control Specialist. She worked for the FAA as a controller for over 26 years and retired in 2016. Prior to moving to Florida, she lived in Ohio where she learned the value of hard work by working on the family farm.
Ms. Fero has one step-son, three adopted children, one foster child, and two biological children. The children are all unique individuals with their own strengths and weaknesses. Having such a large and diverse family naturally led Ms. Fero to an interest in Family Law and the issues that arise.
Ms. Fero has earned an Associates's Degree in Computer Programming and a Bachelor of Arts in Labor Education. Following graduation, Ms. Fero continued working for the FAA and took classes in arbitration advocacy.
Ms. Fero received her Juris Doctor from Florida International University College of Law in 2014. During her time in law school, Ms. Fero participated in two clinics, the Family and Education Clinic and the Health Law and Policy (HELP) Clinic where she enjoyed helping people with their legal issues. She also was a member of the FIU Law Review from 2012-2013, and an Articles and Comments Editor for the Law Review from 2013-2014.

- Q. Hi, my husband wants to divorce. He just filed last week and he says that I’m not getting anything from him.
- A: Florida adheres to equitable distribution of assets, whereby all marital possessions are eligible for property distribution regardless of whose name they bear. The potential for receiving spousal support during divorce hinges on factors such as the duration of the marriage and individual circumstances. The responsibility rests on you to prove the necessity for alimony and the other party's ability to provide it. Talk to a local family law attorney to know how you can protect your rights.
- Q. Can my ex wife get any kind of alimony even though it was waived when our divorce was final?
- A: She can go back to court and file a request for alimony and child support. She'll have the burden to prove that there is a need for those kinds of support and that you are capable of providing it. Talk to a lawyer to know how you can be prepared if this happens.
- Q. Hello, what are the substantial grounds to request sole parenting responsibility in Florida? The Father is in contempt.
- A: If you are seeking sole parental responsibility for your child, you can file a motion to modify your parenting plan with the court. You will need to provide evidence of factors such as alcohol or drug abuse, negligence, or domestic violence against the father in order for the court to consider granting your request.
The court may still order supervised or limited visitation with the father based on the specific circumstances. And if there is no risk of harm to your child, the court may still grant the father liberal visitation rights, even if you have sole parental responsibility.
Talk to your lawyer to know how best you can proceed with your case.
