Simplified Dissolution vs Traditional Dissolution of Marriage

For those seeking a divorce in Florida, the state provides both simplified dissolution and traditional dissolution of marriage. Depending on the details of your circumstances, one may be more appropriate for you than the other.

If you are seeking a simplified dissolution, you will need to meet the following requirements:

You and your spouse agree to end the marriage
You do not have any minor or dependent children
You are not expecting any children
Neither spouse is asking for alimony
You and your spouse agreed on how to divide assets and debts
You and your spouse agreed to a simplified dissolution

If you are going the traditional route, this will require more time as you will need to address each key issue.

Whether you go through litigation or another method, there are several matters you and your spouse will need to achieve a resolution on, including:

Alimony
Parenting Plans (decision-making and time-sharing)
Child Support
Property Division

Whether your divorce is highly contentious and complex or relatively straightforward, you can rely on our Naples divorce attorney to effectively guide you through it and protect your interests.

"Simply the best!"
Where do I even start?! Cavanaugh and Cavanaugh is the best!! Look nowhere else! Call now!!
Firstly, five stars is not enough!!! I wish I could do more! I had a case facing three felony charges, looking at 4-7 years in jail... The case was ongoing for a year and a half, where my previous lawyer (before I hired Daniel Cavanaugh) told me that there was nothing that he could do... I just had to do the time! Mind you, this was one month before my trial date. I fired him instantly, and after searching for a couple of days, a really good friend of mine told me to call Cavanaugh and Cavanaugh. Instantly, I made the call. I spoke with the receptionist, who took my call after the first ring. She was polite and informative. I explained how severe my situation was to her and expressed how much I needed a good lawyer. She took my information and promised me a call back. Before the end of the day, I got a call back and a meeting set with Daniel Cavanaugh the next day. He looked at my case file and dissected my case in 30 minutes to an hour of our meeting... kept me informed with every move he made, every step of the way, something my previous lawyer had a year and a half with and was struggling to do!
Long story short... I didn't do any time, and I'm now walking a free man with no record. Don't take it from me!!! Call now!!! Get your own experience!!! Hire Daniel Cavanaugh and have a say in telling your own story!

"I wish I could give Mr. Cavanaugh 20 stars."
I wish I could give the Law Offices of Cavanaugh & Cavanaugh a 20-star review. The staff's warm welcome relaxed me instantly. They handled my case expertly, and I didn't even have to appear in court. Thank you Mr. Cavanaugh for your dedication and for being a professional.

"Dan Cavanaugh is a skilled professional in all aspects, and I give him my highest recommendation"
Dan Cavanaugh is a skilled professional in all aspects, and I give him my highest recommendation as a criminal/DUI/mental health attorney. My introduction to Dan began with his unwavering and genuine interest in representing my son (with me as his representative) to the absolute fullest – and that never changed at any time. My son had a somewhat difficult and long case, beginning with a DUI and compounded by probation violations stemming from mental health and addiction issues. In the DUI portion of my son’s case, Dan’s expertise and execution were flawless - he successfully and expeditiously navigated the court system in my son’s best interest with a positive outcome. He was responsive and thoughtful of any, and all questions I had – both by phone and email. His staff, especially Kevin, was top-notch. If I ever have a need for a DUI attorney in the future – my only call would be to Dan Cavanaugh. My conviction in recommending Dan is further emphasized from his continued representation for my son’s probation violations – resulting in a considerably more difficult and challenging case. Mental health is a difficult and serious issue facing many people, their family, and their friends. And dealing with the intersection of mental health and the law is very tricky - requiring special skills, experience, and compassion. Simply stated (although not a simple thing), Dan shinned in all these areas. Drawing upon his experience as a former prosecutor dealing with mental health combined with his core skills as a criminal defense attorney, Dan resolved the case with the best possible outcome for my son. Thank you, Dan.
