What Are the Divorce Laws in Florida?

One of the most common family law issues we help clients with is the divorce process. If you need legal guidance with your divorce, it’s imperative to know the state’s laws surrounding this legal matter. After all, while Florida is a no-fault state, that doesn’t mean divorce is always a simple legal process, especially when there are children involved.

The truth of the matter is that any divorce can carry its share of legal concerns, even when it seems like it will be an amicable divorce. This is why you should hire an attorney to walk you through the process. You should also become familiar with the basic requirements, starting with the fact that you or your spouse must have lived in Florida for at least six months before filing for divorce. 

You must then prove that your marriage is irretrievably broken and take steps to determine how you’ll handle important issues like child custody and property division. A skilled attorney can assist with this, especially if you and your spouse can’t agree on these legal matters. Even if you both agree on the terms of the divorce, our law firm offers the speed and ease of a streamlined dissolution process with professional legal guidance. Call today to learn more about how we can assist you with your case in Martin County, Palm Beach County, or surrounding areas. 

What Family Law Issues Do Parents Need to Resolve?

Whether you’re planning to get divorced soon or seeking modification or adjustments to existing legal agreements or Court Orders, being a parent to minor children means you’ll need guidance on issues like child custody, child support, and visitation. A Martin County family law attorney will ensure you know which laws apply to your case and what choices are in the best interests of your children. 

One detail to know is that the state of Florida has adopted a legislative and judicial philosophy that demonstrates its belief that it’s in a child’s best interests to allow both parents to fully participate in their life. That means both parents have the right to participate in a shared parenting plan that establishes a schedule and outlines how important decisions affecting the child are made. If you have concerns about how your co-parent might affect your child’s well-being, let your attorney know before negotiating child custody and visitation in court. 

Another family law matter parents must address is child support. In Florida, child support is based upon a state-approved schedule and can be enforced whether or not the parents are or have ever been married to one another. Whether you expect to pay or receive child support from the other parent, you might have questions about the amount to expect and how long the payments will last. Our attorneys have your best interests at heart and can provide the answers you need as your case proceeds, so call our Martin County firm today for a free consultation with our caring team.
