We practice exclusively in the area of family law, which deals with marriage, divorce, spousal support, child custody, time-sharing, child support, paternity, relocation, and other issues that arise from the family relationship between spouses, partners, or between parents and their children.  It is statutorily governed and it has its own set of procedural rules. The statutes and procedural rules aim to effectively resolve family disputes, while protecting the best interest of the child, the interests of all family members in general, and the family as a whole.

Divorce – The Elephant in the China Store!

Divorce undoubtedly ranks among the most challenging life events an individual may face. At Capizzi Legal, we are committed to assisting you in navigating the divorce process with efficiency, strategic insight, and financial prudence.

In numerous divorce proceedings, matters such as alimony and the division of property and assets often emerge as central points of contention. It is crucial to meticulously catalog and assess all assets and liabilities to ensure a fair division. However, equitable division does not imply an equal split. In the context of equitable distribution, various statutory factors—including the duration of the marriage, contributions made during the marriage, marital waste, infidelity, and other relevant considerations—are factored in when allocating assets and liabilities.

In cases where a divorcing couple has children, disagreements regarding post-divorce parenting can exacerbate tensions.  In Florida, the term “child custody” has been replaced with Parenting Plan agreements, which encompass timesharing schedules and other provisions designed to prioritize the child’s best interests.  The welfare of the child is of utmost importance to Florida courts, a principle that is also upheld by Capizzi Legal.  It is crucial for parents to work together effectively, ensuring that the child’s needs and best interests are at the forefront.  However, if you and your soon to be ex-spouse are unable to reach an agreement on a Parenting Plan, we will create a customized Parenting Plan that addresses all relevant child welfare considerations and present a compelling case to the court for judicial approval of your proposed plan.
