- If you're considering ending your marriage in Florida but want to avoid the stress, time, and expense of going to court, you're not alone. Many couples are looking for faster, simpler alternatives. The good news? In Florida, it is absolutely possible to get a divorce without stepping foot inside a courtroom — if your situation qualifies.
- At My Simple Divorce Online, we specialize in helping Florida residents complete their divorce 100% online, with no court appearance required. Here’s how it works and what you need to know.
What Is a No-Court Divorce in Florida?
- A "no-court divorce" refers to an uncontested divorce where both spouses agree on all the terms of the separation, including property division, time-sharing (if children are involved), child support, and spousal support. If there are no disputes, and the paperwork is correctly prepared and filed, the judge can issue a final judgment without requiring a hearing.
Requirements for a No-Court Divorce in Florida:
- To qualify, you must meet the following criteria:
- One or both spouses must have lived in Florida for at least 6 months prior to filing.
- The divorce must be uncontested — meaning both spouses agree to all terms.
- Both parties must be willing to sign the divorce papers.
- The divorce is filed in a county that does not require a hearing (we often use Lee County, which allows divorce by mail with no appearance).
