Marriage

Before entering into marriage many spouses choose to sign a prenuptial agreement. A prenuptial agreement details the rights of each spouse in regards to marital property, assets, debts, and occasionally child custody, child support, and alimony issues. Couples may also request a postnuptial agreement after marrying to acknowledge changes in their financial situation and address potential complications that may arise in case of divorce.

Divorce

The state of Florida does not require that either side show fault to obtain the dissolution of a marriage. However, at least one spouse must have lived in Florida for six months before filing. Distribution of marital assets and liabilities is governed by equitable distribution. If spouses are unable to come to an agreement the courts will determine what is a fair and equal division.

Children

The best interests of the child are always of primary concern. Recently, Florida established a system of time-sharing and parenting plans. When parents are unable to agree on such issues, the court will decide what is best. Generally, the court will order shared parental responsibility unless such an arrangement is detrimental to the child.

Support

The court may grant alimony to either party and may consider marital fault, especially adultery, when determining spousal support. In Florida alimony influences property distribution and is therefore integral to the final outcome of all divorces.
