Men Can Face Distinct Challenges Amid Divorce

In Florida, a divorce is called a dissolution of marriage, and it begins with a petition from one of the spouses. You can file for a simplified or regular dissolution of marriage, depending on your situation and what best suits your needs. Here is a breakdown of the two:

• A simplified dissolution of marriage is filed when no shared children are involved, all property is divided or decided upon, and both spouses waive their right to a hearing. If the spouses do not meet these criteria, a regular dissolution of marriage must be filed.
• A regular dissolution of a marriage often involves a hearing or negotiations. When children are involved, more paperwork, including a time-sharing schedule, is submitted to the court.

We understand that your circumstances and the implications of your divorce are unique. That’s why we tailor our approach to meet you where you are. To learn more about what we can do for you, call us at 727-416-7145.

Who Pays For Attorneys’ Fees?

The answer largely depends on your financial situation and whether any assets in the divorce are contested.

Generally, attorney fees come from a marital pot unless one party makes more income to pay for the ongoing expenses. You will pay the same attorney fees if your income is the same. The answer becomes more complicated if a fight about property or assets exists.

If you are considering filing for divorce, we can help you determine your best option. If your spouse has already filed, we can help you with the next steps.
