The Basics
Divorce is never an easy choice — even when it’s the only choice. At Just Divorce, we know from experience how stressful this process can be for you and your family. We have more than two decades of experience solving complex problems, such as:
There are a lot of horror stories out there about alimony and, after more than 20 years, we've heard them all. The truth is that alimony, or spousal support, serves a real purpose in cases where one spouse is at a financial disadvantage following a divorce or separation. There are two problems, however. First, unlike child support, there is no formula for deciding how much alimony, if any, is appropriate. Second, some spouses take advantage of this seeming ambiguity to treat the other party unfairly.
So, no matter what side you're on in an alimony dispute, it's important to have an experienced Just Divorce lawyer by your side to protect your rights in this complex area of divorce law.

Child support is one of those issues that almost everyone spends too much time arguing about. We'll let you in on a secret. Child support is actually one of the easiest parts of a divorce case because it basically comes down to doing a bit of math. That is to say, each parent’s monthly child support obligation can be determined fairly quickly by using a statutory formula that incorporates a number of important factors – the number of children, the combined income of the parents, health insurance and childcare costs, etc.
Worried about paying too much for child support? Or maybe you think you're not getting enough? At Just Divorce, our number one priority in these cases is making sure the numbers are right.

At Just Divorce, we recognize the unique and important nature of the parent-child relationship. When parents separate, it can be critical to that bond for both parents to continue to have frequent and meaningful contact with their children. One way to ensure that is to develop, in coordination with your Just Divorce lawyer, a written enforceable parenting plan that includes a timesharing/visitation schedule laying out how and when each parent will spend time with the children, and also specific provisions protecting each parent's parental rights to be consulted about and to make major decisions affecting the wellbeing of the children.
Who gets what? This is one of the most common questions in a divorce case. And, depending on the size of the marital estate, the answer can be either simple and straightforward or complex and time-consuming. Florida law presumes that any property or value acquired during the marriage should be split evenly between both spouses. But what if that's not always the fairest outcome? We provide you with the options you need to keep more of what you own.
The division of property is one of the most fact-dependent determinations that a court will make in a divorce case. That's why it's important to have a qualified and experienced Just Divorce lawyer on your side to ensure a fair distribution that takes into account the contributions made by each spouse to the marriage.
