How do bills get split in a divorce?
As part of the divorce judgment, the court divides the couple’s debts and assets, while deciding who is responsible for paying specific bills. Each state has its own laws for dividing debts and assets. Some states consider the assets and debts each spouse brought into the marriage.
Does Florida require counseling before divorce?
Under Florida law, completion of marriage and/or family counseling is not a statutory requirement for divorce—meaning many couples can and do get separated without ever going through any type of professional counseling. That is not to say that counseling is a bad idea.
Is Florida a no fault state in divorce?
As Florida is a no-fault divorce state, neither spouse is legally required to prove that their partner did anything wrong to be eligible to separate. In that sense, adultery has no impact on your actual ability to get divorced. However, this does not mean that adultery is completely irrelevant to your divorce case.
