How much does a divorce cost in South Florida?

The cost of a divorce in South Florida varies based on whether the case is contested or uncontested, the complexity of assets, and whether children are involved. Uncontested divorces with simple asset structures cost less than contested divorces involving business valuations, real estate, and equity compensation. Florida requires both spouses to file financial affidavits regardless of complexity. For a fee discussion specific to your situation, contact Pazos Law Group at 305-482-1262.

How long does a divorce take in South Florida?

Florida law requires a 20-day waiting period from filing before a divorce can be finalized. Uncontested divorces in South Florida typically conclude in 60–90 days. Contested divorces can take 6–18 months depending on the complexity of issues and the local court calendar. Miami-Dade cases are heard in the 11th Judicial Circuit, Broward in the 17th, and Palm Beach in the 15th.

What is the residency requirement for divorce in Florida?

Florida Statute § 61.021 requires that at least one spouse have resided in Florida for the six months immediately preceding the filing of the petition for dissolution of marriage. This requirement applies to all Florida counties — Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, and elsewhere.
