Mediation in Florida

The information below explains the process of mediation and how it is often required for contested divorce issues such as child custody, alimony, child support and other like matters.

Mediation is a process whereby the parties are given the opportunity to resolve their case without the need of litigating their issues before the court in a contested hearing. In some circumstances, the parties are able to resolve their case in full or in part by entering into a binding settlement agreement.  The courts typically require the parties to attend me mediation prior to allowing the parties the opportunity of bringing a contested issue before the court for resolution. 

The mediator is typically an individual who is court certified as a mediator and/or an attorney who is familiar with family law matters. The mediator does not have the authority to make any rulings or determinations for the parties concerning the case. However, the mediator controls the mediation process and the mediator attempts to facilitate the parties with reaching an agreement. The mediator is not permitted to offer either party any form of legal advice. The parties usually attend the mediation with their attorneys who are there to advise their respective clients on the law concerning their issues.

With limited exceptions, the matters discussed and addressed during mediation are confidential and cannot be used against either party in court. As such, the parties are generally encouraged to engage in open and free co communication in an effort to obtain an agreement. Often times if an agreement is reached, the mediator, with the assistance and guidance of the parties’ attorneys, drafts an agreement that is signed by the parties’ at mediation. The mediation agreement is then filed with the court and an Order is entered by the court that approves and incorporates the parties’ mediation agreement. 

If successful, mediation can and often results in the parties’ saving significant dollars in attorney's fees and costs. Mediation affords the parties the opportunity to be creative with the resolution of their case and allows the parties to achieve certainty of the outcome as opposed to placing the decision-making authority with the court.

Equitable Distribution


Equitable Distribution

One issue that is present in divorce cases in Florida pertains to the distribution of assets and debts between husband and wife. The distribution of assets and debts in a divorce case in Florida is commonly referred to as Equitable Distribution.

The Equitable Distribution of assets and debts in Florida is governed by Florida Statute 61.0075. Pursuant to this statute, the Florida Court is required to set apart to each spouse that spouses’s non-marital assets and liabilities . In distributing the marital assets and liabilities between the parties (husband and wife), the court must begin with the premise that the distribution should be equal between the parties, unless there is justification for an unequal distribution based upon relevant factors.

Assets and liabilities that are not subject to distribution between the parties are non-marital assets and non-marital and liabilities. Non-marital assets and non-marital liabilities include:

1. Assets acquired and liabilities incurred by either party prior to the marriage, and assets acquired and liabilities incurred in exchange for such assets and liabilities;

2. Assets acquired separately by either party by non-interspousal gift, inheritance, and assets acquired in exchange for such assets;

3. All income derived from non-marital assets during the marriage unless the income was treated, used, or relied upon by the parties as a marital assets.

4. Assets and liabilities excluded as marital by a valid agreement between the parties.

5. Any liability incurred by forgery or unauthorized signature of one spouse signing the name of the other spouse. Any such liability shall be a non-marital liability only of the party having committed the forgery.

The cut-off date for determining assets and liabilities to be identified or classified as a marital assets and liabilities is the earliest of the date the parties enter into a valid separation agreement, such other date as may be expressly established by such agreement, or the date of the filing of a petition for divorce. 

The date for determining value of assets and the amount of liabilities classified as marital is the date or dates as the judge determines is just and equitable under the circumstances. The Court can value different assets by using different dates. 

In general, all assets acquired and liabilities incurred by either spouse after the date of marriage and that are not otherwise classified as non-marital, are presumed to be marital assets and liabilities, subject to distribution between the parties by the Court.
