What Are The Big Things To Consider In A Florida Divorce?
Divorces in Florida can be complex. There are several important aspects to consider; it is common to feel overwhelmed when thinking about them all. As a Jacksonville divorce lawyer, I am here to handle everything capably, including:
- Property and asset division: Equitably dividing marital assets and debts under Florida equitable distribution laws, which mean a fair, but not necessarily equal, division.
- Spousal support: I work with you to consider the need for alimony. You need to understand how spousal support might impact your financial future.
- Children’s best interests: I prioritize the well-being and stability of your children, focusing on custody and support arrangements in their best interests. Focus on their well-being and stability.
- Legal complications: Potential challenges can arise with contested issues or disagreements. Having a clear plan and open lines of communication can mitigate these challenges.
The time and cost of a divorce varies depending on each factor. Uncontested divorces are typically faster and more affordable, often taking a few weeks to a few months. Contested divorces, on the other hand, can take longer and be more expensive, potentially lasting several months to over a year. I strive to provide clarity on the timeline and costs involved, helping you make informed decisions.
