Answers to Common Questions About Family Law 

  • How is child custody determined in Florida?

    In Florida, courts determine custody arrangements based on the best interests of the child. Judges may consider factors such as each parent's ability to meet the child's needs, the stability of each home, and each parent's willingness to support the child's relationship with the other parent. Florida recognizes two forms of custody: parental responsibility and time-sharing. Every case is unique, and outcomes depend on the specific facts involved. If you have questions about your situation, speaking with a qualified family law attorney is the best next step.

  • What is the difference between arbitration and mediation?

    Mediation is a voluntary process where a neutral third party helps both sides work toward a mutual agreement. The mediator does not decide the outcome. Arbitration involves a neutral arbitrator who hears both sides and issues a decision, which is typically binding. Both are forms of alternative dispute resolution and can be used in a variety of legal matters. The right approach depends on your specific circumstances, and an attorney can help you determine which option fits your case.

  • How long does a divorce take in Broward County?

    The timeline for a divorce in Broward County varies depending on the complexity of the case. An uncontested divorce, where both parties agree on all terms, can sometimes be finalized in as little as a few weeks to a few months. Contested divorces, where disagreements over assets, custody, or support need to be resolved, typically take longer and may extend to a year or more depending on court scheduling and the issues involved. Factors such as case volume in the Broward County court system can also affect timing. An attorney familiar with local courts can give you a more realistic estimate based on your specific situation.

  • Can custody or support orders be modified?

    Existing custody or support orders can potentially be modified if there has been a substantial change in circumstances since the original order was entered. Common examples include changes in income, relocation, or shifts in the child's needs. Any modification must be approved by a court before it becomes enforceable. Because modification cases vary significantly, consulting with an attorney can help you understand whether your situation qualifies.

  • What qualifies as a high asset divorce?

    There is no strict legal definition for a high asset divorce, but the term generally refers to cases involving significant marital assets such as real estate, business interests, investment portfolios, retirement accounts, or other substantial property. These cases often require additional steps such as formal asset valuation, forensic accounting, or review of complex financial documentation. High asset divorces tend to involve more negotiation and legal strategy than standard cases. If your divorce involves significant financial complexity, working with an attorney who has experience in high asset matters can make a meaningful difference in the outcome.
