Los Angeles: The 50-year-old actor hasn't seen his six-year-old child since estranged wife Katie Holmes filed for divorce last month but he plans to be reunited with the youngster as soon as possible.
Tom's lawyer, Bert Fields, told website RadarOnline.com: "Tom will be seeing Suri very soon, I don't know exactly when that will be, and I couldn't tell you, but I do know it will be very soon. Tom loves Suri very, very much, as he does his other two children. Tom is a family man, and dedicated to his children. They are the centre of his world."
Tom - who also has adopted kids, Isabella, 19, and 17-year-old Connor, with second wife Nicole Kidman - is currently in California shooting new movie Oblivion, while Katie and Suri are in New York.
