Florida's alimony laws are outdated, unpredictable and the process of divorce is financially devastating to families. We need to protect our children from being used as bargaining chips in divorce litigation.

The Florida legislature is considering a bill that modernizes divorce laws to create predictability, uniformity and consistency. Parties will be able to reasonably assess projected outcomes and resolve their divorce cases without financial devastation and years of emotional and expensive litigation.

This bill eliminates permanent alimony, and brings Florida in line with the majority of states. It sets limits on duration and amount of alimony, and places parents on equal footing when they walk into court, while providing judicial discretion to always do what is in the best interests of the child. This bill allows both parties to retire with dignity, while giving the courts discretion to protect vulnerable alimony recipients.

There has never been a fairer and more balanced proposal to change Florida's antiquated alimony laws. Please sign this petition to ask Gov. DeSantis stand with Florida families and sign SB 1796/ HB 1395 into law.
