Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

While going through a divorce (Florida), can I purchase a home if monies used for the down payment are not from a joint account, but rather a gift from family members? Would this be considered a joint asset?

As long as you can show that these monines are a gift and not in any way part of the marital assets, you should be ok. However, it is would be wise to contact the attorney who is representing you and discuss this issue before proceeding. If you have no attorney, contact my office for an appointment.
