Divorce.

We know that divorce is an exceedingly difficult and emotional process. I am committed to helping you restructure your family, with as little stress and negative impact upon you, your spouse and your children as possible. My goal is to guide you through your divorce, using many resources and expertise to secure a fair and favorable resolution – and to achieve a successful divorce with dignity.

Whether your divorce is straightforward or complex, you need an experienced law firm that will handle your divorce with care and efficiency. My compassion, dedication and experience help set The Law Office of Christopher C. Calhoun, apart from other family law firms for divorce, which the state of Florida calls “dissolution of marriage.” I focus on solutions and not problems, helping you develop the best solutions for you, your children and your finances. I attempt to educate you on the law, achievable goals, and appropriate next steps. I carefully review with you other options to litigation, such as collaborative law. I believe that collaborative law is a good solution for most divorces, but not all. Potential advantages to the collaborative law process are quicker resolution, less expense and more privacy than litigation.

Many cases can be settled without a trial. If litigation is unavoidable, I have the skill and experience to forcefully present your case to the court. It would be my pleasure to advise you on related family law matters as well, including the mediation process and parenting plans. Your divorce does not have to define your life. It is not the “end” of your family. It is a restructuring of the form of your family, ideally putting the wellbeing and needs of your children first.

I also provide related family law services, including:

• Child Support

• Parenting plans/time-sharing

• Modification Actions
