If you are thinking about divorce, consulting with an experienced attorney early in the process can help you better understand your legal rights, responsibilities, and available options before important decisions are made. Early legal guidance often helps clients avoid unnecessary mistakes, protect valuable assets, and prepare for issues that may arise throughout the case.
This is especially important when a divorce involves children, substantial marital assets, retirement accounts, business interests, alimony, contested parenting matters, or a spouse who has already retained legal counsel. Understanding Florida's divorce laws before filing can make a significant difference in the outcome of your case.
Our attorneys work closely with clients to explain the legal process, identify potential challenges, and develop practical strategies that align with their goals. Whether your divorce is expected to be cooperative or highly contested, we are committed to helping you move forward with confidence.
Every family has its own story, and no two divorces are exactly alike. While every situation is unique, many clients seek legal guidance after experiencing challenges that have placed significant strain on their marriage or made reconciliation no longer possible.
Financial stress is one of the most common sources of marital conflict. Disputes involving income, debt, budgeting, spending habits, financial priorities, or major purchases can create long-term challenges that ultimately contribute to the decision to pursue divorce.
Disagreements involving parenting responsibilities, communication, child-rearing decisions, or long-term family goals can place tremendous pressure on a marriage. When parents are unable to resolve these issues together, divorce may become the best path toward establishing stability for everyone involved.
Florida is a no-fault divorce state, meaning a marriage may be dissolved when it is determined to be irretrievably broken. Over time, couples may grow apart, develop different priorities, or find that the relationship is no longer healthy or sustainable. In these situations, divorce can provide an opportunity to move forward toward a more secure future.
Helping families resolve disputes through skilled mediation. In many Florida family law cases, mediation is a required step before a case proceeds to trial. Mediation provides an opportunity for both parties to work toward resolving disagreements with the assistance of a neutral third party, often reducing conflict, saving time, and avoiding the expense of prolonged litigation.
As a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator, Steven J. Glaros has completed the training and certification required to facilitate family law mediation in accordance with Florida's standards.
His experience in family law provides valuable insight into the legal and practical issues that commonly arise during divorce, child custody, parenting plans, alimony, and other family-related matters.
Family Attorney
Certified Mediator
Family law mediation is a confidential process where a neutral mediator helps spouses or parents communicate, identify disagreements, explore possible solutions, and work toward a mutually acceptable agreement.
Florida courts frequently require mediation before a contested divorce proceeds to trial. Successful mediation may help families avoid lengthy court proceedings and create solutions tailored to their circumstances.
Working with a Florida Supreme Court Certified Family Mediator means choosing a professional who has met certification requirements established by the Florida Supreme Court.
Mediation is a confidential process that often allows families to resolve disputes more efficiently than litigation. Many participants appreciate the opportunity to reduce conflict, control costs, and reach practical agreements while maintaining greater control over the outcome.
When agreements are reached through mediation, families often avoid prolonged litigation while maintaining greater control over the outcome.
Whether you are beginning the divorce process or attempting to resolve post-judgment family law issues, mediation can be an effective step toward reaching a fair and lasting agreement.
Division of marital assets and debts
Child custody and parenting plans

Alimony and financial support disputes
Post-judgment family law issues
If children are involved, one of the most important parts of the divorce process is creating a parenting plan that addresses parental responsibility, time-sharing, and the child’s best interests. We help parents work through custody disputes and pursue arrangements that are fair, workable, and legally sound.
Child support is a major concern in many divorce cases. We help clients understand how support is calculated, what factors may affect the amount, and when modifications may be appropriate.
In some divorces, one spouse may be entitled to financial support. We represent clients in disputes involving temporary support, rehabilitative support, bridge-the-gap support, and other alimony-related matters under Florida law.
Florida follows equitable distribution, which means marital assets and debts are divided fairly, though not always equally. This can involve homes, retirement accounts, vehicles, business interests, bank accounts, and other shared property. We help clients protect their financial interests throughout this process.
