Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

If you need a forensic accountant, you should also have an attorney. Your attorney would surely know what Motion to file. It can be part of the attorney fees and costs sought in a Motion For Temporary Relief, or it can be done as a Motion For Forensic Accounting, whereby you would be seeking having the Court order the other parties' cooperation in allowing access to the information/records needing to be reviewed.

In Florida, with family law cases, depending on the parties' comparative financial resources, the Courts have the discretion to hold one party responsible for all, or part, of the other's attorney fees and costs. In other words, if the other party has significantly stronger financial resources, while you will still have to pay the retainer, do not assume that you will not be able to afford to retain an attorney. Reimbursement can be sought.

If you opt to proceed without the assistance of counsel, be aware that you will not be entitled to a �do over� if things go badly.

The above information is provided without any consideration/payment having been received, and without full knowledge of all of the facts.

An internet inquiry is no substitution for an in-office consultation with an attorney.

Call me to discuss the specifics of your case. I will give you a realistic idea as to the likely cost (fees and expenses). Then if you want, we can schedule a no-obligation office consultation.

Please do not send me any text messages.

Sincerely, Elliot Goldstein

A forensic CPA is typically used to analyze a business, in a divorce case one would be used to determine the value of the business and what monies are going in and out and if any monies are hidden. Contact my office for free consultation 727-446-7659.
