- Q. If I open a business w/o my wife's assistance, is she entitled to ownership in a divorce?
- A: Yes, property acquired during the marriage, except for inheritance is considered marital property. Florida is a 50-50 equitable distribution state. This means that, any interest acquired in any assets during the marriage is subject to equal division. This does not matter if her income is more. One way to prevent this is to do a post nuptial agreement.
- Q. With Florida statute 61.1255 codifying adult disabled child support, would this be family law of guardianship?
- A: Generally child support issues fall within family law. However a case related to the disabled child must be filed before the age of 18 for the family law courts to have jurisdiction over the matter beyond the age of majority. So the question is, was there ever a case that was initiated that child support was awarded in, if so, you could return to court and request for an extension beyond the age of 18 due to the disability.
- Q. Pretrial divorce hearing in FL, do witness statements have to be submitted or just witness list, prior to actual hearing
