Florida is a no-fault divorce state. This means that either spouse can file for dissolution when the marriage is irretrievably broken. It is not necessary that both parties agree on whether the marriage is irretrievably broken and neither spouse has to prove that the other party caused the marriage's demise.

Depending on your situation, your divorce may involve:
- Parental responsibility and time sharing: Sometimes referred to as custody and visitation, parental responsibility and time sharing are determined by what is in the best interests of the child.
- Equitable distribution of the assets: In Florida, everything acquired during the marriage is presumed to be marital and will be divided 50/50 unless you can prove otherwise.
- Alimony and child support: In determining whether alimony will be awarded in your divorce, the court looks at the non-supporting spouse's need and the supporting spouse's ability to pay. Child support, on the other hand, is awarded based on a formula that considers both parents' incomes.
In the face of these important decisions, it is crucial that each spouse retains independent legal counsel.
