Can I file for divorce in Florida without a lawyer?
You are not required to have a lawyer to get a divorce in Florida. However, if you have questions about your case, or you and your spouse do not agree on the divorce, then you need to talk to a lawyer. The court is not allowed to answer questions about your case or to give advice about your rights.
What is proof of adultery in Florida?
In order for the injured spouse to have any consideration under these statutes, he or she must prove adultery. Adultery may be proven by circumstantial evidence, such as when the adulterous spouse had the ability to cheat and was in the same location as the affair partner.
Does adultery affect divorce in Florida?
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.
Can you sue your spouse’s lover in Florida?
In Florida, you used to be able to sue a seducer or seductress who your husband or wife ran away with. You could file a suit for “alienation of affection” claiming that your spouse would still be in love with you if not for the actions of a third party.
