Divorce

   Divorce is the legal act of changing your marital status from “Married” to “Single.” In Florida, if you tell the Court that your marriage is irretrievably broken, and you ask for a divorce, the Court will grant it, whether your spouse agrees or not. You are not required to explain why you want a divorce; this “no‑fault” approach exists to protect your privacy.

 

   At first glance, the concept of divorce may seem simple, but in most cases the Court will not finalize it until all related issues are resolved. These may include parenting matters if there are children under 18, the division of marital property and debts, child support, and alimony. At Santana Law, we guide you through each of these steps with clarity, compassion, and strategic focus, ensuring your rights are protected.
