Frequently Asked Questions About Divorce & Family Law
Florida does not recognize legal separation. Therefore, you should be aware that until you file for divorce, all of the marital responsibilities and liabilities are in full effect. Unless you have made the proper alternate arrangements, you and your spouse can still make life decisions over one another, and continue to have financial liability and an interest in financial gain over each other’s assets and liabilities.

The amount of child support to be paid is determined by the Florida Child Support guideline worksheet. The formula that is used takes into consideration how many children are involved, whether one parent is already paying child support for another child, the number of overnights each parent will have with the children, child care cost, medical insurance, and the income of each parent.

Absolutely NOT. If there are no concerns about the safety of the child, both parents are entitled to spend time with the child, even if one parent is not paying child support. If you would like to speak with one of our attorneys, click here to schedule a free case evaluation.
No. Florida does not recognize common law marriage. As such, a Family judge will not have any authority to make decisions over any financial responsibility with the exception of child support, if the couple has a child.

Basically, this is how you dictate how your assets will be administered and how your loved ones and what is most important to you, will be taken care of when you die.

Legal/Immigration counsel is something no one expects to need. You hear awful stories of other attorneys not knowing their clients or treating you as a number. The law offices of Casais & Prias make you feel like you are part of their team. I have no words to thank Rolando Casais for everything he has done for my family and me. His level of efficiency and dedication is FLAWLESS. Give them a call and you’ll understand the difference.
