Help for military families at Homestead Air Reserve Base
Divorce and custody cases involving service members follow some special rules. Federal law can pause court proceedings while a service member is on active duty. Military retirement pay can be divided as part of the divorce. Parenting plans also need to account for drills, deployments, and changes of station. We help both service members and military spouses understand how these rules apply to their case.
Family businesses, farms, and nurseries
Many South Dade families own a nursery, farm, or small business in the Redland and surrounding areas. When a marriage ends, that business may need to be valued and divided fairly. We work with financial professionals to value the business and look for solutions that keep it running, such as one spouse buying out the other over time.
What to expect in your Homestead case
Family cases for Homestead residents are filed in the Miami-Dade County Circuit Court, part of Florida’s Eleventh Judicial Circuit. Some hearings can be held by video, which can save you time off work. We handle the filings and deadlines and prepare you for every hearing and mediation.

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to go to the downtown Miami courthouse?
Not always. Some family hearings in Miami-Dade are held by video. If you need to appear in person, we will tell you where to go and what to expect.
Can I get a divorce if my spouse is in the military?
Yes. The process has a few extra steps, such as rules about serving the papers and protections for active-duty members. We can explain how they apply to you.
I moved to Homestead recently. Can I file for divorce here?
At least one spouse must have lived in Florida for six months before filing. The time you lived elsewhere in Florida counts.
Do you offer a free consultation?
Yes. Call (305) 201-0529 or schedule online.
