How Long Does It Take to Get Divorced in Florida?
The divorce process could take as little at 3 months to finalize in Florida or about a year depending on the circumstances of your case. An uncontested divorce generally takes less time, whereas a contested divorce will take more time due to unresolved issues. If any matter, including child custody, asset and property division, child support, or spousal support is contested, the court will need to determine how to resolve these issues, which could take more time than expected. A couple also has the option of settling their disputes outside of court with the help of a mediator as well. Meditation can usually resolve these issues quicker than going to trial; however, this also depends on the unique circumstances of your case.

Reasons to Hire an Experienced Board-Certified Divorce Lawyer
There are several benefits to hiring an experienced board-certified divorce lawyer. As a board-certification is the highest possible level of education the state bar association can offer, you can rest assured a board-certified lawyer has the experience and qualifications you would expect. Additionally, as not every lawyer can qualify to be board-certified, this distinction signifies that a lawyer has gone above and beyond to ensure he/she has the education required to best represent his/her clients. Here are some additional benefits to hiring such an attorney:
- Possesses expertise in family law and divorce
As a board-certified divorce lawyer, attorney Charles E. Willmott, P.A. possesses the expertise and qualifications to provide his clients with top quality legal representation. Going through a divorce is stressful and emotional, which is why hiring a specialist is so beneficial. Instead of wasting time and energy trying to navigate a divorce by yourself or with a less experienced attorney, you can opt to hire a board-certified lawyer who can provide you with legal counsel you can depend on in your time of need. Additionally, you will not find a more reputable or experienced lawyer than a board-certified lawyer.
If you require quality perspective and advice from an expert, a board-certified attorney can provide just that along with the care and compassion you need to secure a favorable divorce outcome.
- Ensures all your documentation is filed correctly
A divorce requires a significant amount of paperwork and filing deadlines. It is not always easy to navigate this state of the process by yourself as you are under a lot of emotional stress. The court relies heavily on this paperwork to make their judgements, so it is imperative to turn this documentation in on time. An experienced attorney can ensure your paperwork is filled out correctly, advocate for your best interests, and file the appropriate documents on your behalf saving you time and providing you with peace of mind.
- Holds themselves to a higher standard
A board-certified attorney has undergone a rigorous certification process and met specific qualifications that many other attorneys have not, setting them apart as the most experienced, knowledgeable, and educated lawyers in their area of specialization. A board certification marks a lawyer as an individual who is well respected in the legal community. If you are searching for a lawyer who can advocate for you, hiring such an expert is a smart move.
