Family Law Services for Clients in Miami Beach
We represent individuals and families in Miami Beach with the full range of Florida family law matters, including:
Divorce and Legal Separation
Divorce in Miami Beach often includes property owned in multiple states or countries, real estate portfolios, or shared business interests. We help clients:
- File for divorce in Miami-Dade County
- Resolve high-conflict and high-asset disputes
- Divide marital and non-marital property equitably
- Evaluate and pursue (or defend against) alimony
- Finalize parenting plans and support arrangements as part of the divorce
Whether your case involves a family home on Venetian Islands or a condo in South Beach, we tailor our legal approach to your financial situation and your priorities.
Parenting Plans and Time-Sharing
Custody cases in Miami Beach often involve busy work schedules, travel, blended families, and multiple residences. We help parents:
- Establish or revise court-approved parenting plans
- Structure weekday and weekend time-sharing schedules
- Define school, medical, and travel decision-making rights
- Enforce time-sharing orders when the other parent isn’t cooperating
- Address relocation requests and parental conflict through court or mediation
Whether you’re co-parenting with a former spouse or never married your child’s other parent, we help you build a plan that works for your life, and holds up in court.
Child Support
Florida’s child support formula only works when the numbers are accurate. In Miami Beach, income can come from many sources, commissions, bonuses, crypto assets, trusts, or even international accounts.
We help clients:
- File for child support or respond to a request
- Ensure accurate income is reflected for both parties
- Include healthcare, daycare, travel, and education expenses
- Modify child support when jobs, custody, or costs change
- Enforce unpaid support orders through legal action
You deserve a child support outcome that is fair, sustainable, and based on facts—not assumptions.
Modifications to Existing Court Orders
Life changes—and your court orders should reflect that. Whether you’re changing careers, relocating, or adjusting to a new parenting dynamic, we help clients:
- Modify parenting plans due to relocation, remarriage, or school changes
- Modify child support due to income changes or evolving child needs
- Modify or terminate alimony after retirement, cohabitation, or remarriage
- File emergency motions when safety or stability is at risk
We also defend against modification requests that are unjustified, one-sided, or retaliatory.
Domestic Violence and Protection Orders
If you’re experiencing threats, harassment, or abuse, you can act quickly to protect yourself and your children. If you’ve been falsely accused, you have the right to fight back and protect your name, your job, and your parenting rights.
We assist with:
- Petitions for injunctions (restraining orders) in Miami-Dade
- Hearings for domestic, dating, or stalking violence
- Emergency motions tied to time-sharing or child safety
- Protective orders that intersect with divorce or custody cases
- Defense against false or exaggerated abuse allegations
These cases often move fast—and can have lasting effects on your family and your record.
Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements
With real estate values soaring and generational wealth at play, prenuptial agreements are common in Miami Beach. Whether you’re marrying for the first time or planning a second marriage, a strong prenup can protect your future.
We help clients:
- Draft or review enforceable marital agreements
- Address businesses, real estate, intellectual property, and inherited wealth
- Create postnuptial agreements after marriage when circumstances change
- Preserve assets in blended families or when children are involved
- Coordinate estate planning with financial protections
These agreements offer peace of mind—not just protection.
