Broward County Divorce Lawyer

If you are thinking about filing for divorce in south Florida, or if you are already a party to a family law proceeding, you may have many misconceptions about your rights. Many individuals incorrectly believe that alimony or spousal maintenance is not available in Florida. In reality, the decision whether to grant spousal support is made on a case-by-case basis.

At the law offices of Darren K. Edwards, PA, in Fort Lauderdale, we know and understand the divorce laws in Florida. We have represented men and women throughout south Florida and the Tri-County area in family law and divorce matters for over 19 years. Contact us to schedule a free initial consultation.

We handle all matters related to divorce, including child custody, visitation, the division of marital property, and child and spousal support. We counsel clients at all stages of a divorce or family law dispute, from the initial filing through negotiation and mediation, and trial, if necessary. We also work extensively with individuals who need assistance with the enforcement and modification of divorce judgments.

When we work with men and women involved in a divorce or family law matter, we begin by analyzing client needs and expectations. If there are minor children involved, we will work with you to identify custody, visitation and support arrangements that are in the best interests of the children, while still meeting your needs. We will identify your options and assess your likelihood of success.

Parental Relocation

We work closely with parents throughout the area to ensure compliance with the new Florida law governing the relocation of a parent, whether out-of-state or out of the county of jurisdiction. The law now requires that the party seeking to relocate must notify the other parent. If the other parent objects, the court must have a hearing to determine whether the relocation will be permitted.

Paternity Determinations

At the offices of Darren K. Edwards, we have also advised mothers and fathers in situations where paternity is an issue. If you are a father seeking to terminate child support obligations or a mother attempting to establish responsibility for support, we can help.

If you need experienced divorce counsel in south Florida or the Tri-County area, contact our offices for a free initial consultation. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express. Payment plans are available.
