Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

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 nformation, 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.

That is the reasoning for filing a divorce. In today's day and age, you do not allege grounds, however, like you formerly did but simply say that the marriage is irretrievably broken. It is up to the court to determine the distribution of marital assets but neither spouse generally receives damages for any of the reasons you have stated.
