Residency Requirements for Divorce in Florida
In order to obtain a divorce in Florida, a party must meet the residency
requirements of this state. This is a jurisdictional requirement and
cannot be waived by the parties or the court.
The residency requirements can be somewhat complex and certainly
there are always exceptions, etc., depending on the circumstances of
each case.
Florida is a very transient state and many people relocate to our state
or marry here and then relocate to another state. If you are seeking a
divorce in Florida and you are uncertain as to whether you meet the
residency requirements, please feel free to contact one of the
experienced Florida family law attorneys in our directory to find out if
Florida is the proper state to file your divorce.
