What are the basic steps to getting a regular (non-simplified) dissolution in Florida?
1) File the Petition for Dissolution of Marriage and Summons with the Circuit Court Clerk and pay the filing fee of approximately $350.00-$410.00. 2) The county Sheriff (or a private process server if you prefer) serves the Petition and Summons on your spouse. 3) File the remaining documents with the Clerk after they have been signed by you and your spouse. 4) The spouse who filed for dissolution attends the final hearing, at which time the Judge signs the Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage. 5) Mail a signed copy of the Final Judgment of Dissolution to your spouse.
