How Is Property Divided in Florida?

Florida law calls for equitable distribution. Do not mistake equitable for meaning the same as equal. Equitable means fair. Fair is not always equal.

To determine what is fair, there are many factors that must be considered. These factors include the length of the marriage, the economic situation of each spouse, the amount of non-marital property that each spouse possesses and more.

In the eyes of the law, it may be fair for one spouse to get a larger portion of marital property if, for example, he or she chose to forego educational or career opportunities to raise a family. The goal of our property division attorney is to pursue an outcome that is fair to you.
