- Q. How does not being on the deed affect my property rights in a Florida divorce?
- A: If the property was purchased before the marriage, and improvements and or mortgage payments were made using marital funds, you would have a marital interest in the home which would need to be calculated. If the home was purchased during the marriage with marital funds, you could also have an interest in the home. We would recommend that you contact an attorney to assist you as these issues can be complex and difficult to navigate on your own.
- Q. Can I stop alimony if ex-spouse is remarried in Florida?
- A: If he has remarried or is in a supportive relationship you should consider filing a motion to terminate alimony. In the meantime you can try and search vital statistics records to verify whether she has been remarried or you can hire a private investigator to complete a search.
- Q. Can a non-resident petition for divorce in FL with property involved?
- A: You can file in Florida but not until she has been in Florida for at least 6 months. You can try and file it sooner than the 6 months if there would be no other jurisdiction that could address the divorce, but to be safe you would want to wait the 6 months if you can.
