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. If you would like to speak with one of our attorneys, click here to schedule a free case evaluation.

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. If you would like to speak with one of our attorneys, click here to schedule a free case evaluation.

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.
