- Q. Can my husband take both cars if they are in his name?
- A: In Florida, whose name is on the title isn’t the whole story. If the cars were acquired during the marriage, they’re generally treated as marital assets, even if they’re registered and insured only in your husband’s name or paid from his account. By the same token, any loan or credit tied to those vehicles is usually a marital liability. Florida divides marital assets and debts in a way that’s meant to be fair, which often—but not always—lands near 50/50.
Because you’re not in a court case right now, there isn’t a standing order that assigns “who gets which car.” If a divorce is filed, a judge can issue temporary arrangements that give each spouse access to transportation ... Read More
- Q. Struggling with child support and parenting plan modification in FL.
- A: Yes, this is troubling and one in which I do not have an immediate answer because the scenario you described is unclear. It sounds like the current court ordered parenting plan requires your son to live with the father for 100% or majority timesharing and you are the person obligated to pay child support???

If money is the issue, some law firms have payment plans and financing. Look up your county's ... Read More
- Q. How to fight accusations in a domestic case and address restraining order in FL?
- A: Please retain an attorney. These DV cases go left and they may not matter as much except for when the DV prevents contact with your children. We see it over and over again because the self represented parent comes to us after the court has entered to do the injunction preventing contact with the children. We work towards getting motion to dissolve granted, but it’s an uphill battle. Your children are worth it.
