Understanding The Divorce Process in South Florida
The divorce process in South Florida can be complicated and overwhelming. We will guide you through every step, from filing the initial petition to the final decree. We will explain your rights, answer your questions, and keep you informed throughout your case.
Here's a general overview of the process:
- Filing a Petition: One spouse files a petition for dissolution of marriage with the court.
- Response and Counterpetition: The other spouse files a response and may also file a counterpetition.
- Discovery: Both parties exchange information and documents relevant to the case.
- Temporary Orders: The court may issue temporary orders regarding child custody, child support, alimony, and other matters while the divorce is pending.
- Negotiation and Settlement: We will attempt to negotiate a settlement agreement with the other party to resolve all issues.
- Mediation: If negotiation is unsuccessful, the court may order mediation to help the parties reach an agreement.
- Trial: If the case cannot be settled, it will go to trial, and a judge will make decisions on all contested issues.
