Divorce represents a significant life transition and can be one of the most challenging experiences a person goes through. It may cost too much, financially and emotionally. The emotional toll includes the stress and sadness of ending a relationship, potentially changing family dynamics, and adjusting to life as a single person. Physically, the stress can also manifest in health problems due to the immense stress and changes in living situations or routines. But while the decision to divorce should not be taken lightly and the process itself can be difficult, many find that the long-term benefits of ending an unhappy marriage outweigh the initial hardships. It's important, however, to approach this transition with the right support, whether through counseling, legal advice, or the support of friends and family, to navigate the process in the healthiest way possible. You've got this!

In Florida, there isn't a set age when a child gets to decide which parent they want to live with during a custody case. This means the court will listen to what the child wants, no matter how old they are. But, this doesn't mean the child's choice is the only thing the court cares about. The court looks at a lot of things to decide who the child should live with. They think about whether the child is safe, how the child gets along with each parent, and what the child needs to be healthy and happy, both physically and emotionally. When a child is mature enough to understand what custody means and has a clear preference, the court pays attention to that. The court knows kids should get to share their thoughts, especially when those thoughts can help figure out the best setup for them. To get a clearer picture of what the child wants and what's best for them, the court may get a Guardian ad Litem or a Child and Family Investigator involved. These professionals talk to the child and then let the court know what they've found. The court then uses this information, along with everything else it has, to make a decision on custody.

Florida is a no-fault divorce state, which means adultery does not affect the legal process of dividing property and debts and does not give one spouse an advantage over the other in the property division process. Instead, the court focuses on the fair and equitable distribution of marital property and debts. However, if a spouse is found to have used marital assets for their own benefit, such as spending money on an extramarital affair, the court may consider this when dividing the marital property and may award a smaller share of assets to the cheating spouse. This is not a punishment for the cheating, but rather a way to make sure that the division of assets is fair and equitable. The court will consider the extent of the dissipation, the value of the assets, and the timing of the dissipation when determining how to compensate the non-cheating spouse.

Some people think that if they are the first to file for divorce, they'll have the upper hand, but that's not really how it works. When a judge looks at a divorce case, they don't care who filed the papers first. What they do care about is the information and proof that both sides share in the courtroom. The judge focuses on what's best for any kids involved and how to divide things like money and property fairly between both sides. It's key for everyone to tell their story truthfully and clearly, no matter who started the legal process. In some cases, being first to file can change some of the temporary decisions along the way, but it won't sway the judge when they make the final call on the divorce. If you're thinking about getting a divorce, talking to a good divorce lawyer can really help. If you're thinking about filing for divorce, we can guide you through the process and help things go as smoothly as possible. Schedule a free phone consultation with us today: ☎️+954-947-0572

Early on in a relationship, it's common to overlook signs of trouble in your partner, like dishonesty or poor communication. It's important to notice and deal with these signs early since they can show bigger problems in the relationship. If these issues make you very unhappy or uncomfortable, you might need to consider ending the relationship. In some cases, divorce could be the best option if the relationship is truly unhealthy and not fulfilling. It allows both people to find happiness elsewhere instead of staying in a stressful situation. Remember, divorce is a big decision. Think about it carefully and speak with an expert before making a choice.
