South Florida's Premier Divorce Lawyers
Divorce is a multi-step process. Having a strong legal advocate at your side changes the outcome — and the experience.
At The Law Offices of Patrick L. Cordero, P.A., we represent men and women throughout the Miami area in divorce and legal separation. Our attorneys work hands-on with every client, take the time to listen to your situation, and tailor strategy to what you actually want to accomplish.
Serving Your Divorce Needs
We work with couples in both uncontested and contested divorce cases (also called dissolution of marriage). Regardless of where your situation falls, we are here to help. Our lawyers explain the divorce process in plain language and walk you through every issue that may arise — including:
- Property division — including the division of assets, debts, and marital property. We also explain the difference between separate and marital property.
- Alimony — your situation may or may not involve alimony (sometimes called spousal support). If it does, we explain the types of alimony and how they apply to your case.
- Child custody and time-sharing — building parenting plans that protect your relationship with your children and meet Florida's best-interest standard.
- Child support — Florida uses statutory guidelines; we review them, identify any warranted deviations, and pursue enforcement when needed.
Uncontested and Contested Divorce Representation
If you and your spouse agree on most or all of the terms, the process can be straightforward — divorce mediation lets you keep control of the outcome and avoid lengthy court fights. We review documents, identify issues that may surface later, and finalize a settlement that holds up.
If your divorce is contested, or involves a complex dispute such as domestic violence, hidden assets, or business valuations, we bring clarity through aggressive representation. We have the courtroom experience and negotiation skills to handle even the toughest divorce cases — and we know when to push and when to settle.
A Personal Approach to Every Case
Our family-law team takes a hands-on approach. We promote open communication, encourage questions, and are personally available throughout your case. You will never be passed off to a junior associate you've never met.
