How simple or complicated the divorce process may be depends on many factors. Whether you and your spouse have children, have purchased real estate or own a business together, have substantial financial investments, and other factors may determine how long it takes for your divorce to become final, and whether it is amicable or contentious. Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements often complicate matters as well. It is likely you have many concerns that need to be addressed, such as who will get primary custody of the children, whether you will be granted spousal support, or even how marital property and debt will be divided. It is critical to have a divorce attorney on your side who can address all of your questions, and provide the legal advice and guidance necessary to reach your desired result.
Deland Divorce Lawyers Handling Property Division, Child Custody, and MoreFlorida is a no-fault divorce state, which essentially means there does not have to be a reason for filing for divorce other than as a couple you have fallen out of love, or are no longer compatible. Neither spouse must be at fault; for example, your spouse does not have to be an unfit parent or have committed adultery in order for you to obtain a divorce. However, matters often become complicated, making it impossible for spouses to agree on every issue. One spouse may not agree to child custody or visitation; there may be arguments over who will retain certain property such as the house, vehicles, boats, and other assets. If one spouse racked up debt on a credit card in the weeks or months prior to filing for divorce, will you be responsible for part or all of that debt? As you can see, matters can quickly become very complicated, prolonging the process of having your divorce finalized. In some cases mediation is effective, while in others it is necessary to go to trial and let the judge make the decisions you and your spouse cannot come to an agreement on. We are on your side, and will work diligently to make certain your legal rights are protected.
