Divorce

Several issues that arise during the process of Divorce:

1. Alimony- Based on need, ability to pay, and standard of living during the marriage. Several factors are assessed when determining if someone should receive or pay alimony.
2. Child Support- based on the parties combined net income and obligation as determined by the State of Florida.
3. Time-sharing issues with the children- based on the child’s best interest.
4. Division of assets- based on equitable distribution and the determination of which assets are marital and non-marital.

Hiring a divorce attorney to assist and deal with these issues during your separation provides you with reassurance that you will receive all that you are entitled to. Having an attorney negotiate these issues can also save you money and time and avoid the necessity of a trial.
