First, do yourself a BIG favor. Avoid a lot of any confusion by getting familiar with the legal terms that you will encounter when you fill out your forms.
For instance, did you know the legal term the State of Florida uses for divorce is Dissolution of Marriage? Or that a self representing litigant (without a lawyer) is called Pro-Se?
We highly recommend that you read the General Information for Self-Represented Litigants. This is a helpful guide issued by the State of Florida. In it you'll find descriptions of legal terms you will encounter while filling out your forms.
Another useful resource is A Judge's Guide to Divorce: Uncommon Advice From the Bench. This book has been used by thousands to successfully navigate their divorce case. Take a look at our Florida Divorce Bookstore for more titles.
Unless you and your spouse are reasonably agreed to the divorce and you have come to an agreement, most people are well advised to consult with a family law attorney when it comes to divorce. Especially when dependent children, assets, and liabilities are involved.
Also, if you have a limited understanding of the legal terms, the process, the specifics of each and every form, a missing spouse, or one or both of you are in the military.
Our experienced Legal Experts can help when you need legal advice. They are just a phone call away.
If you find that these forms a just a bit too much, you might prefer using this nationally recognized on-line divorce preparation service. If you prefer speaking to a person, you can use our Petition Preparer Service. We can prepare your forms for you at a very reasonable rate.
