Hiring a Tampa Uncontested Divorce Attorney is Beneficial

 

Do You Need to Hire a Tampa Uncontested Divorce Lawyer?

You do NOT need to hire a Tampa uncontested divorce attorney, however, it is highly beneficial to do so. An uncontested divorce can turn into a contested divorce should the parties reach an impasse on any one of the matters that must be agreed upon. In an uncontested divorce in Tampa Bay & Florida, all issues must be addressed, agreed upon and finalized via a marital settlement agreement: This includes:

1. Equitable distribution of marital property and debt, including separate property if applicable 
2. Child custody & timesharing
3. Child support
4. Alimony 
5. All other divorce requirements set forth by the state of Florida.

How Long Does an Uncontested Divorce Take?

Every situation and divorce is different but if the parties agree upon the terms of their divorce settlement, a final judgment of dissolution of marriage will be entered soon after filing. This process occurs approximately 30 days after the a case is filed with the clerk. If you opt for no hearing, then you do not have to appear in court and a final judgement will be entered and a copy will be sent to both parties.

Tampa Child Support Attorney on Child Support Enforcement

If you were divorced in Hillsborough County, Pinellas County or Pasco County, Florida and you require the assistance of a Tampa divorce attorney with child support enforcement matters, the family law firm of Nilo J Sanchez and Associates can help.

Your divorce is final. You finally can begin to move on from what is often times a very traumatic and life changing event in your life. If you have children and have been granted primary custody, you were also likely to have been awarded child support. In Florida, parents, whether having been married or not, are equally responsible to support their children and child support guidelines are used to establish the amount of child support to be awarded. Visitation or timeshare schedules are also set up and are generally considered in the final settlement agreement with regards to the amount of support to be paid. For most parents who have primary custody, it is imperative that they receive the court ordered child support, on time and for the full amount ordered. Unfortunately, there are times when the parent who has been ordered to pay child support neglects their obligation to the other parent (and their children) going against the court order that has been established. When this happens it can be very difficult to collect your support without the assistance of an aggressive Tampa family law attorney.

If you are not receiving your court ordered child support you may wish to hire an attorney to assist you with filing a child support enforcement order with the courts. Nilo J Sanchez, divorce and child support lawyer is located in Tampa, Florida and has been assisting clients with matters of post divorce enforcement orders such as child support enforcement for two decades and will take an aggressive approach to collecting child support, as well as child support arrearages, daycare expenses, medical bills or even enforce orders that refer to maintaining insurance for the minor child or children.

It is every child's right to be financially supported by both parents and family law lawyer, Nilo J Sanchez will take an aggressive and knowledgeable approach to ensure that every legal step is taken to collect the support that the primary custodial parent has been awarded--- so the financial needs of the children are cared for.

Do You Owe Back Child Support?

Alternatively, there are times after your divorce has been finalized, or even if you were never married, that you have been ordered to pay child support yet circumstances have truly changed. Perhaps you have lost your job, become ill, or have had other substantial changes since the final order. Before you get behind on your child support, contact our Tampa family law office to see about getting a modification of child support. Severe penalties, both civil and criminal are more likely to be avoided if you take the proper steps to ensure that your child support is paid and obligations are met according to your final order. If you have child support arrearages and you have been served with a summons for the enforcement of child support, contact Tampa, Florida divorce lawyer Nilo Sanchez and Associates for a consultation.

Owing child support is no small matter and although you may have had circumstances that have made it impossible to pay your child support obligations, your children are entitled to be supported by both parents under the law and there are strict guidelines set forth to ensure this happens. Often times, Florida's Child Support Enforcement becomes involved with child support cases and if the other parent has sought out help through that agency to collect their court ordered support, it can be challenging to get the help you need, to get back on track with your support or to enter into a modification.

For a consultation with Tampa family law attorney, Nilo J Sanchez and Associates, please call (813) 879-4600 or visit our website at http://www.divorcelawyer-tampa.com for additional information on how we can assist you with a child support enforcement case in Tampa ( Hillsborough County) Land O Lakes, Lutz, Dade City, NPR, Florida ( Pasco County) or St. Pete, Clearwater, Florida (Pinellas County) Mr. Sanchez has extensive experience in litigating child support enforcement cases in these courts.

Entering the divorce process often times is emotional as well as a difficult time in a person’s life. A divorce is the dissolution of a unique relationship that was once created. The dissolving of this unique relationship is further complicated when the financial realities are faced and confronted. It is a given that couples can live typically more financially secure under one roof than what can be achieved by being in separate residences. Often times one spouse is dependent upon the other for financial assistance. The spouse requiring assistance may seek a form of alimony from the other spouse. Alimony is based upon the years of marriage, the need of one spouse, the ability of the other spouse and is in consideration of the standard of living enjoyed during the course of the marriage. Hiring a divorce lawyer in Tampa who is experienced in areas of alimony can help you through this difficult transition.

For purposes of determining alimony, there is a rebuttable presumption that a short-term marriage is a marriage having a duration of less than 7 years, a moderate-term marriage is a marriage having a duration of greater than 7 years but less than 17 years, and long-term marriage is a marriage having a duration of 17 years or greater. The length of a marriage is the period of time from the date of marriage until the date of filing for divorce.

Under Florida law, the court can order alimony. Three types of alimony are common. Bridge-the-gap-alimony, rehabilitative alimony, durational, permanent alimony or any combination of these forms of alimony. Bridge-the-gap alimony is to assist one spouse in making the transition from being married to being single. Bridge-the-gap alimony may not exceed 2 years. Bridge-the-gap alimony terminates upon the death of either party or upon the remarriage of the party receiving alimony. An award of bridge-the-gap alimony is not modifiable in amount or duration. It is wise to seek an experienced Top AVVO Rated divorce lawyer in Tampa who can assist you with your alimony case.

Putting the Family Back into Family Law

Divorce is a stressful event for any couple and chances are, whether you've been married a year, or thirty years you will likely suffer from some stress in the initial phases of your divorce. Often times, the stress trickles down and the whole family feels the effect of divorce.

If you've been married for a short period of time and do not have children, many couples will seek what is referred to as a "simplified" divorce, but if you've spent a good portion of your life with your spouse, divorcing becomes more complicated. Seeking the services of a Tampa divorce lawyer who is experienced in the areas of filing for temporary relief, alimony, child support and high net worth divorces is generally recommended. Although you may wish to settle your case without litigation, often times spouses will make emotionally charged divorce settlement agreements without seeking the advice of an experienced Tampa divorce attorney.  This may not be in the best interest of all parties and your family as a whole.

The main focus of a couple who is divorcing generally boils down to distribution of assets and if you have children, custody, child support and sometimes alimony. Child support will likely play a huge role and the primary caregiver will generally be awarded child support, based on the child support guidelines by the State of Florida.

Ultimately, it is always in the best interest of your family to work together to reach an agreement that is in the best interest of both spouses as well as the children. Often times emotional turmoil may initially hinder the parties from reaching a divorce settlement agreement. Equitable distribution of assets, child support, custody and alimony (if applicable) must be agreed upon. When agreement cannot be reached between parties, you will require the assistance of an aggressive divorce lawyer to litigate these matters in family court.

It is my goal to help my clients to achieve the very best outcome for the whole family, while defending my clients' best interests in their divorce settlement. Having over 19 years of experience as a Tampa divorce lawyer, you can be sure that my approach will be to help you to reach the very best divorce settlement for your future, and the future of your family.

If you are looking for a Tampa divorce attorney who is aggressive, compassionate and who specializes in family law services in Tampa bay, please contact me for a consultation. I am a top rated AVVO divorce lawyer in Tampa bay who can handle any divorce case in Hillsborough, Pasco or Pinellas County. Let me show you how to protect your assets in a divorce while keeping your family at the forefront during your divorce.

If you are in need of a divorce lawyer in Tampa who can assist you with obtaining temporary relief before your case is resolved, please contact me promptly for assistance at (813) 879-4600.

Lawyer Nilo Sanchez | Lawyer Divorce

Nilo J. Sanchez & Associates is an experienced divorce attorney in Tampa who can assist you with your divorce including matters of alimony.  With five different types of alimony that can be considered by the courts, determining which type of alimony, if any will be awarded is dependent on many factors.  The length of marriage, whether it has been a moderate-term marriage or a long-term marriage of 7 to 17 years or longer.

Spousal support or alimony is often times awarded to one spouse or another by a Florida court when a marriage has been irrevocably broken and divorce ensues. Temporary alimony  pending a divorce settlement can be awarded and may continue after the divorce. Generally, courts will determine whether or not there is a need for alimony, and will take into consideration the other party's ability to pay.

The five different types of alimony that will be considered by a Florida court and they are as follows:

- Lump sum alimony
- Rehabilitative alimony
- Durational alimony
- Permanent periodic alimony
- Bridge the gap alimony

For detailed information on the types of alimony that can be awarded in Florida and what each means, visit http://www.divorcelawyer-tampa.com/alimony-attorney-Tampa-Florida.htm or schedule an appointment with Mr. Sanchez at Nilo J. Sanchez & Associates, Tampa, Florida for a review of your case.  As a compassionate, aggressive divorce lawyer in Tampa for nearly 20 years, Mr. Sanchez will go over every aspect of your divorce case, including alimony, child support and timesharing and has extensive experience with high net worth divorce cases.
The alimony statute is Florida Statute section 61.08.  Because alimony is handled differently from child support, predicting how much you may have to pay or how much alimony you would receive is unlikely. The courts would decide this based on several factors but as an aggressive, high rated Tampa AVVO family law attorney and divorce lawyer who has practiced in Tampa bay for nearly two decades, I have litigated many cases involving alimony. Contact me directly to schedule a consultation where we can discuss which factors the courts are most likely to consider in your individual case. Often times coming to an alimony settlement agreement between the two parties yields the best overall results and I work aggressively to achieve the best possible results for my clients.

Divorce is a difficult and life changing event for your family especially when  a long-term marriage is ending in divorce. Often times emotions will interfere with what is best for your future as a single person. Your standard of living will be taken into consideration, as well as your health, age, earning ability and other factors which may be taken into consideration.  It is wise to consult with a Tampa divorce attorney to assist you with your divorce and alimony case. Sometimes just "settling" with the other party ends up in regret, and it can be more difficult to modify an alimony agreement and it is preferable to enter into to a fair settlement at the time of your divorce.
