Frequently Asked Questions
How is child support calculated in Florida?
Florida uses statutory child support guidelines (Fla. Stat. § 61.30) based on combined parental income, the number of children, time-sharing distribution, and certain expense allocations such as health insurance and child care.
Can a parenting plan be modified later?
Yes, Florida law allows modification when there has been a substantial, material, and unanticipated change in circumstances and modification serves the child's best interests. The threshold is intentionally high to promote stability.
What if my spouse refuses to cooperate?
Florida procedure provides tools to compel disclosure (financial affidavits, document production), to schedule mediation, and to bring contested motions before the court. A non-cooperative spouse generally cannot block a divorce indefinitely.
