FAQs

How Is Child Support Calculated?

Child support is calculated by a set formula based upon your gross income and certain monthly costs and expenses. Once you figure out your net income, the court will look at the Child Support Guidelines Worksheet to determine your exact payment based on your individual income and the number of children you have.

What if I Make Child Support Payments for Another Child?

As long as you are actually paying that child support, the Florida courts will be able to take your payment amount into account when determining the child support for any other children.

How Is Spousal Support or Alimony Determined?

Alimony is determined by the need of the spouse who is requesting alimony and the ability of the spouse who will be paying the alimony. The goal of alimony is to maintain the marital lifestyle the spouse has become accustomed to for a specific period of time. Numerous factors are taken into consideration, such as the length of the marriage, income, earning capacity, how each spouse contributes to the marriage and others.

Should I Hire a Family Lawyer?

While you can handle a divorce on your own, a Florida family lawyer can be a great asset in figuring out the best and easiest way to proceed. Every situation is different, and because of that, a family lawyer will be able to draw upon their experience and knowledge to give you the best advice and representation you need.
