Recapping Florida Divorce Law.
Researching Florida divorce law this morning for one of the blogs, and also anyone else that may be looking for divorce law in Florida.
In Florida you must be a resident of the state to file, this means you can not move then file, You must have filed for divorce before you have left the state. If your in the armed forces in Florida, you can file for divorce at any time.
Florida divorce law you can simply state that there are irreconcilable differences and that the marriage is beyond repair. If there is an agreement on both sides and no arguments with the divorce then you can just simply put a stipulation in the divorce papers, that you can go ahead and divorce, ending the marriage. Now if either spouse disagrees with the divorce and wants to work at it or if there is children involved in the divorce, ALSO if there is fighting on how to split the debt in the divorce, then the courts can order that there needs to be marriage counseling before the divorce process can go into any affect. In Florida counseling for a divorce does not need to come right from a marriage or divorce counselor, you may also see a psychiatrist, minister, rabbi or anyone else that is experienced in counseling, counseling for the divorce can not come from friends or family. It is recommended that there is counseling for families going through a divorce anyhow, because it does help children and spouses open up and move on in life without feeling guilt or pain.
Now of course the divorce process begins when one spouse files for divorce and the other spouse is then served. A spouse is given what is called a reasonable amount of time to respond to the divorce papers, but not a prolonged amount of time. The divorce process can go very simple if every one is in agreement about property division, debt division. child support and child custody. If not the divorce will be set to trial.
