Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Re: counter petition

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

Simply put, your spouse has filed his own petition for dissolution in opposition to yours. Most likely, his allegations will differ from yours as will the relief sought. If you are not represented by an attorney, it is time to consider this in order to have your interests properly protected.
