This article is being written to conclude and recap my series on the possibility of obtaining a “no fight” divorce in our area of Florida. I considered it important to write on this topic as many individuals wish to end their marriage and agree on how to do so. Utilizing a more streamlined process can help such spouses to save time and money. I wrote this series of articles with the goal of providing information which will help people to better understand their situation. It has also been my goal to provide information which will assist with the selection of a family law attorney. If you or a loved one are in need of assistance then contact my office today to speak with a Melbourne lawyer.
- Eligibility for a simplified Florida divorce
- The benefits of a simplified dissolution of marriage
- Handling child custody & support in an uncontested divorce
- Retaining an attorney for a simplified divorce
There are multiple reasons why I chose to address these particular topics. First, one cannot file for the simplified process in our state simply because they want to. They must first meet the residency and jurisdictional requirements. Second, it is important to realize that utilizing this process can save time, money, and aggravation for all involved. Third, the parties must be in complete agreement to utilize this process. This includes total agreement on all issues related to child custody, visitation, and support. Finally, utilizing the services of an attorney can help to prevent mistakes in the handling of the case. Such mistakes may lead to future litigation and expense. Avoiding, therefore, can be critical.
An important point that I will stress in each of these articles is that one should speak with an attorney as soon as possible if they are considering ending marriage. It is common for spouses to be unsure of their rights and to be operating under mistaken assumptions. An experienced attorney can help you with determining the specifics of your situation and what options you have. As a Melbourne uncontested divorce lawyer, I am able to assist with such matters. If you require assistance then contact my office online or by telephone today to schedule an initial consultation. I look forward to speaking with you.
