Frequently Asked Questions
How are vessels and marina memberships divided in a divorce?
Vessels and marina rights acquired during the marriage are generally marital. Each requires valuation, consideration of carrying costs, and titling considerations. Memberships may have separate transfer rules.
Can I keep my Jupiter waterfront home?
Through a buyout of the other spouse's share, refinancing, or by trading other marital assets of equivalent value. Liquidity and the home's equity drive the practical options.
What if my spouse and I disagree on time-sharing?
Florida courts apply the best-interests-of-the-child standard with 20 statutory factors (Fla. Stat. § 61.13(3)). Mediation is generally required before a contested hearing. Both parents' positions are heard, and the court can order an evaluation if useful.
