Jacksonville Beach Divorce Serving Families Throughout Jacksonville For Over 25 Years

Jacksonville Beach Divorce Attorney

The decision to divorce – “Dissolution of Marriage” in Florida – often comes after months, sometimes years, of contemplation, discussion and attempts to resolve differences. Once the decision is made, you can trust our Jacksonville Beach divorce lawyers at The Law Offices of Jason K.S. Porter, P.A to represent you with integrity and compassion.

Divorce in Florida

Florida is a no-fault divorce state. Some states require fault grounds, such as adultery or drug abuse, but Florida has no such requirement. A spouse only needs to say that the marriage is irretrievably broken. The state’s residency requirement also stipulates that at least one party be a Florida resident for six months prior to filing a Petition for Dissolution of Marriage.

Uncontested Divorce

An uncontested divorce is generally less stressful, costs less and concludes quicker than a contested divorce. A divorce is uncontested when both spouses agree on all terms of the divorce. Even in uncontested divorce, we will guide you through the process and make sure all aspects are addressed in the divorce agreement. A Marital Settlement Agreement is presented to the court for approval. Uncontested divorce can be finalized quickly, usually in less than a few months, and does not require your presence in court.

Our dedicated divorce lawyers realize that every divorce is different. From relatively simple to highly complex, we have the experience you need to reach a resolution as quickly as possible. We look not only at your current situation, but also what best serves your future, both personally and financially. Avoiding a divorce trial is advantageous in most situations, so we prioritize first attempting to come to an agreement out of court. If that is not possible, we will aggressively represent you before the judge at trial.

At The Law Offices of Jason K.S. Porter, P.A, we understand divorce can be traumatic and emotionally charged. The sooner both parties can move forward, the better. Trust us to guide you through each step with care and dedication.

    Mr. Porter and his staff are fantastic. They clearly explained the charges, potential outcomes and estimated timelines. They worked closely with me to tailor their services to my unique situation. The entire team demonstrated extensive knowledge of the law, flexibility, and responsiveness. These qualities helped put my mind at ease until they were able to get all charges against me dropped. I would highly recommend this law firm.

    "Ms. Carlucci provides great support and promotes collaboration with her clients."

    My divorce litigated for close to two years as it was highly contentious and involved more complexities. Ms. Carlucci did a wonderful job of helping me understand and navigate the legal system. Ms. Carlucci set realistic expectations and was willing to listen to my concerns, questions, and thoughts. Divorce can be a very grueling and hard process. Ms. Carlucci provides great support and promotes collaboration with her clients.

    "Mr. Porter was very friendly and knowledgeable."
    Mr. Porter helped me in 2010 with a Breach of Contract case in which he was able to recover my earned commissions from my former employer. Mr. Porter was very friendly and knowledgeable in the area of Non Compete agreements which allowed for a quick settlement from my former employer. The staff was great and addressed my issues and questions in a timely fashion. I would recommend Mr. Porter to anyone that has a case in the areas he practices in.
