Complexities
Florida is a no-fault state, meaning that you don’t need to show grounds or fault. A spouse does not have to prove the other spouse did anything wrong in order to get divorced. While some of the legal requirements may seem straightforward, there are other extenuating circumstances that create challenges for same-sex couples.
A skilled divorce lawyer can help with classifying assets and debts, and will negotiate on your behalf for a fair divorce settlement and all that you are entitled to.
If children are involved, parenting plans and support issues can become extremely complex. As in all divorces, the court always considers a number of factors to establish the best interest of the child.
