A: You need to find a lawyer in your local area that offers a free consultation, sooner rather than later. Do not wait for papers.

A: Florida adheres to equitable distribution of assets, whereby all marital possessions are eligible for property distribution regardless of whose name they bear. The potential for receiving spousal support during divorce hinges on factors such as the duration of the marriage and individual circumstances. The responsibility rests on you to prove the necessity for alimony and the other party's ability to provide it. Talk to a local family law attorney to know how you can protect your rights.
