Re: divorce

If you have established a residence in Alabama and qualify as such you can file in Alabama (check with an Alabama attorney). If you still are a legal resident of Florida file here. You don't mention any children so I assume that is not a concern. Only property is some real estate in Florida, right? You don't say if you are on the deed. If you are not on the mortgage, then you don't have to pay anything; you were just doing out of the kindness of your heart. As far as his having a hard time making the mortgage, he should have thought about it before he bought the place.
