Our Services

At the law offices of Scott J. Stadler, we offer a wide range of family law-related services. Our areas of expertise include:

Divorce

In Florida, a divorce can be granted if one spouse has been a resident of the state for at least six months and the marriage is irretrievably broken. Our firm has extensive experience handling all aspects of divorce, from the initial filing to the final decree.

Paternity

Paternity refers to the legal process of establishing the identity of a child's father. In Florida, there are two types of proceedings to establish paternity: administrative and judicial. Our firm can help you understand the differences between these two options and guide you through the process.

Mediation

Mediation is a confidential process that allows parties to discuss settlement terms and resolve their case without going to trial. This can be a more cost-effective and efficient option than going to court. At the law offices of Scott J. Stadler, we have extensive experience representing clients in mediation.

Child Support

In Florida, both parents are responsible for contributing to child support on a pro rata basis, based on their gross income. Our firm can help you understand how child support is calculated and ensure that your rights are protected.

Custody

In Florida, the public policy is to ensure that each child has frequent and continuing contact with both parents after divorce. Our firm can help you understand your rights and options when it comes to child custody and visitation.

Alimony

Alimony, or spousal support, is awarded based on one spouse's need and the other spouse's ability to pay. Our firm can help you understand how alimony is determined and ensure that your rights are protected.
