Divorce
At Effman Law, we understand the difficulties of divorce because we’ve been helping families through the process for over 40 years. In those years, our divorce attorneys have devised numerous ways to handle an array of cases in Broward County. Even if you are going through an amicable uncontested divorce, it helps to have a team of lawyers on your side with a reputation like that of Effman Law’s. Our experience not only helps us better understand the process, but our attorneys have the know-how to build a case with your specific goals in mind.
Child Support
If you are married and getting a divorce, child support will usually be determined through the divorce process. In order to protect yourself, it is paramount that you acquire the best divorce attorney. If you are unmarried, the process can become more difficult. Often, in the case of unmarried parents, the Florida Department of Revenue determines the amount of support each parent is required to give.
Child Custody and Visitation
In Florida, the laws regarding “custody” (now referred to as “majority time parent”) are designed with children as the top priority. Because of this, Florida courts work to fairly determine parental responsibility and do not favor a mother’s custody rights over the father’s. Most Florida custody cases result in a time-sharing agreement (visitation rights) that works for both the mother and father of the child or children. The judges in the Florida courts believe in the importance of shared parenting and that each child benefits from being raised with both a mother and a father.
Adoption
Paternity
Determining a biological father is a quite simple process, requiring only a DNA test to determine paternity. Determining the Legal Father of a child, however, may not always be as easy, since parenthood must be determined by a court in Florida. A court ruling can determine a child’s legal father as can marriage and adoption. At Effman Law we believe each parent deserves a fair case and our attorneys will work hard to provide unbiased representation in paternity cases.
Spousal Support
If you are seeking alimony in a case, there are a series of facts that must be considered in order to determine if you are eligible. The Florida court must assess the case to see if there is a need for alimony and if your spouse is able to pay. If a judge determines that alimony is needed and the spouse can afford to provide it, they must next consider the factors that decide how much alimony you are eligible to receive and for how long.
Legal Separation
The Florida divorce process is somewhat complicated. We are constantly being asked, “how do I file for legal separation in Florida?” Fortunately, in Florida there is legal separation. One may file a Petition for Dissolution of Marriage in order to separate from a spouse. However, negotiations can be made and some couples prefer separation agreements over divorce. While this works for some, many find that filing for divorce in Fort Lauderdale or Plantation is the best or only option for them. Our skilled team of divorce lawyers will work diligently to bring you the best representation in the South Florida courts.
