5 Steps to Start a Divorce in Florida
- Filing the Petition: The first step in initiating a divorce in Florida is filing a Petition for Dissolution of Marriage. This legal document outlines the grounds for divorce, such as irreconcilable differences or a spouse’s mental incapacity, and includes information about child custody, support, and property division if applicable.
- Serving the Petition: After filing the Petition, the next step is to serve it to your spouse. This involves delivering a copy of the Petition and other relevant documents to your spouse in accordance with the legal requirements. Proper service ensures that your spouse is officially notified of the divorce proceedings.
- Responding to the Petition: Once served with the Petition, your spouse has a specific period, usually 20 days, to file a response. The response may agree or disagree with the terms outlined in the Petition and may also raise any counterclaims or additional requests related to child custody, support, or property division.
- Negotiation or Mediation: In Florida, divorcing couples are encouraged to resolve their issues through negotiation or mediation. This step involves discussing and reaching agreements on various aspects of the divorce, such as child custody, visitation, alimony, and the division of assets and debts. If successful, these agreements are documented in a written settlement agreement.
- Finalizing the Divorce: If the parties are unable to reach a settlement through negotiation or mediation, the divorce case will proceed to trial. During the trial, both sides present their arguments and evidence to the judge, who then makes decisions on unresolved issues. Once the judge issues a final judgment, the divorce is finalized, and the terms of the judgment become legally binding.
It’s important to note that the divorce process can vary depending on the specific circumstances of each case. It is recommended to consult with a qualified family law attorney in Florida to ensure you understand the process and to receive personalized guidance throughout your divorce proceedings.
