Frequently Asked Questions

Florida allows for no-fault divorces, meaning you don’t necessarily need to prove wrongdoing by your spouse. The main grounds for this are irreconcilable differences or mental incapacity of one spouse for at least three years. A skilled divorce lawyer can guide you through these requirements and ensure all legal procedures are met for your case.
How long a divorce will take in Florida depends on the complexity of the case in question, namely, whether it is contested or not. Uncontested divorces can take as little as a few weeks, while contested divorces that involve property disputes or custody terms can easily take months. A knowledgeable divorce attorney in Florida can help you streamline your divorce process and cut down on unnecessary delays.
Once your divorce is finalized, you will do well to update any legal documents you have, such as wills or insurance policies, and review custody agreements if you have any children. Divorce lawyers in Florida who focus exclusively on family law cases are invaluable when it comes to compliance with court orders like child support or alimony and can help you address any post-divorce modifications you may want to have implemented.
If your ex-spouse plans to relocate with your children, you may file an objection with the court. Florida law requires that they be granted permission to move should doing so significantly impact visitation. What constitutes impact can be somewhat unclear unless you’ve had ample experience with these sorts of issues, so it’s worth consulting an attorney as you consider moving forward with exercising legal recourse in this type of situation.
Florida courts may order one spouse to cover the other spouse’s attorney fees if there is a significant income disparity between the two or other relevant financial considerations at play that warrant such a decision. A divorce attorney well versed in divorce and alimony cases can assess your situation and give you a decent idea of what the likelihood of this happening to you might be, as well as advocate for your fees to be covered as part of your case if they aren’t slated to be.
