Divorce

A divorce is generally more than just simply walking into a courthouse and agreeing to separate and dissolve your marriage. The issues addressed in your divorce will impact the rest of your life and the lives of your friends, children, family, and colleagues. Here are just a few of the many questions or uncertainties you may have when going through or filing for a divorce:

  • Custody - What are my rights for visitation or custody of our child(ren)?
  • Child Support - How much will child support be?
  • Property Division - How do we divide the property that we have acquired during our marriage or other marital property?
  • Alimony - Will there be alimony, and if so, how much?
  • What is an Uncontested Divorce?
  • Are there alternatives to trial, such as mediation?
  • How long will the divorce take?
  • Do we both get to stay in our home or does someone have to move out?

No one has a crystal ball and therefore the outcome to a future trial can never be foretold, however, speaking with a South Florida divorce attorney can help you answer these questions, as well as other questions you may have about a divorce in Miami Dade or Broward County Florida. After an initial consultation you should have a better idea of what your overall present circumstances are and what will be needed to complete the process.

When going through a divorce the stresses and difficulties in both your personal and professional life are magnified exponentially and are frequently too much for one person to have to cope with. The identification and division of all the property obtained during the course of the marriage can be difficult and time consuming and if you and your spouse cannot agree on which property is marital and which are non-marital or also how to divide the property then a trial will be necessary and the Judge or General Magistrate will listen and evaluate the relevant evidence properly submitted to the Court and will make a ruling as to these issues. Experience with the Florida Rules of Evidence and with the proper way to admit evidence are just some of the reasons you may want to be represented by a Miami divorce attorney or Broward divorce attorney.
