Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Re: Family law divorce

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. Similar questions like this have been asked repeatedly.

There is no such thing as secondary service. You have just experienced why it is AGAINST THE LAW for a paralegal to give legal advice. This is called UPL or the unauthorized practice of law.

Unless you can prove that your husband is residing with your mother. If he resides there, then the service is proper. If not, you will need to serve your husband by publishing in the legal newspaper as recognized by the courts where the case has been filed.
