Dissolving your marriage in Florida can be difficult, but one of the most stressful factors may be determining child support. Parents may be able to better prepare for the court’s decision if they understand the basics of the state’s child support laws. We at The Minaya Law Offices not only fight for your rights, but also strive to help you understand what those rights are.
Florida child support basics
Can you make co-parenting a peaceful and positive experience?
If you and your spouse are getting a divorce and have had children together, chances are you have already begun thinking about a custody arrangement. As is the case for many Florida couples, the thought of co-parenting your children with your estranged spouse may seem impossible or daunting at the least. However, with the right approach, you can reach an agreement that is in the best interest of everyone involved.
Florida maintains lifetime alimony
Florida is one of only a few states in the country that has laws on the books for what many call “lifetime alimony,” or spousal support payments after a divorce that have no end date. As the Sun Sentinel reports, the state legislature has tried to amend this law four times in the past four years, and 2017 is no different.
Parents: are you prepared for summer custody changes?
Summer is right around the corner. That means that in a matter of weeks, kids across Florida will be out of school and looking for ways to spend their summer vacation.
