Florahome, FL Divorce Law Firms & Lawyers

I am a divorce lawyer in the state of Utah, so my comments and opinions are limited to my experience in this jurisdiction: Assuming you are not a problem client and you are current in paying your attorney's bill, there could still be very legitimate and very reasonable explanations for why your attorney appears not be doing anything and/or why your attorney is not returning your phone calls, but I doubt it. Divorce lawyers are generally (although not universally) among the most lazy, stupid, and crooked attorneys in the legal profession. I know this because I am a divorce attorney who has to deal with these kinds of attorneys every day (and yes, I am an exception to the lazy, stupid, and crooked divorce lawyers). If your attorney appears to be doing nothing, not moving the case forward, won't return calls, and isn't at least keeping you updated and apprised of the status of your case and the reasons for that status, your attorney has likely lost interest in your case, and you'd be better off replacing him/her to get some progress made.

The presence of your girlfriend is not to be considered by the Court in setting the amount of spousal support but it might motivate your wife to cause you more grief.

If no one receives any state services, then yes the court will usually agree to the amount you agree on; however, child support can be modified based on any substantial change in circumstances.
