General Information

  • How long does it take to get divorced in Florida?

    It depends on whether the divorce is contested or uncontested. Uncontested divorces may take a few months, while contested cases can take longer depending on complexity and court schedules.

  • Do I have to prove fault to get divorced?

    No. Florida is a “no-fault” divorce state. You only need to state that the marriage is irretrievably broken.

  • How is custody decided in Florida?

    Florida uses the term “time-sharing” and bases decisions on the child’s best interests, considering factors like parental involvement, stability, and communication.

  • Can child support be modified?

    Yes. If there’s a substantial change in income, custody, or expenses, you can petition the court for a modification.

    Paternity can be established voluntarily, through court order, or via genetic testing.

  • What types of adoption do you handle?

    We assist with stepparent, relative, and private adoptions, ensuring compliance with Florida law and protecting all parties involved.
