Dedicated Divorce Support
How a divorce process unravels will depend on the specific situation of every couple. Those who broke up amicably can fast-track the divorce proceeding, while others may get into a contentious process of dealing with sensitive issues that affect the couple and their whole family.
Regardless of how complex your situation may be, however, The Law Office of Verna Popo is more than capable of representing your case. If both parties are on good terms, our Loxahatchee divorce lawyer can help draft and finalize a divorce agreement that both parties will agree on. The terms, of course, will not only be in your best interest but also your children’s.
However, if it’s a messy breakup, our lawyers can start helping from serving the papers until the final divorce decree. Financial documents and other paperwork will be gathered and evaluated so that the determining process for debt division, asset division, alimony, and child support will transpire as smoothly as possible.
We will do our best to try to resolve the case after negotiations. However, if court hearings are necessary, we can expertly represent you without problems.
Child Custody & Child Support
If you work with The Law Office of Verna Popo, we’ll make sure that we won’t only protect your rights but also resolve issues in a way that best secures your child’s well-being.
Our divorce lawyers will ensure that once all relevant factors are evaluated, the court order will have a fair child support amount, the right type of custody, and appropriate visitation rights.
Aside from making sure that the correct amount of child support is being paid, we will help you enforce the court order in the event that the paying parent fails to provide his financial obligation. And if circumstances change over time, we can also help you request child support modifications.
For child custody issues, our lawyers are also committed to considering all of your child’s needs during the decision-making process. Each of the parties’ parental capacities will also be evaluated, looking into any illness, incompetency, substance abuse, and lack of any necessary resources.
Whether you are a mother, father, or grandparent, The Law Office of Verna Popo will proactively advocate for your rights.

Alimony & Spousal Support
Whether you are the one asking or required to pay alimony or spousal support, the Loxahatchee divorce lawyers at The Law Office of Verna Popo can skillfully ease and quicken the process. We will ensure that the right amount of spousal support will be given and that the support duration will be no more or less than necessary.
There are five types of alimony in Florida that you can receive or be required to pay during or after the divorce:
Temporary support is a type of alimony given during divorce proceedings. This will help the lower-earning spouse to remain financially stable while the divorce is still pending. Once the divorce is finalized, the paying spouse will stop providing temporary support.
Bridge-the-gap alimony is a type of support that aims to help the recipient spouse in meeting legitimate short-term needs as they transition from being married to single. These needs may include paying bills while the spouse waits for the marital home to sell, or paying for daily living necessities while still looking for a full-time job. This type of alimony has a maximum duration of 2 years and will be terminated if the paying spouse dies or the receiving spouse remarries.
Rehabilitative support is the most common type of alimony in Florida. It is awarded if a spouse can fully support themselves but will still need time and financial assistance to redevelop the skills and refresh the knowledge needed to be back into work and become self-sufficient again. An articulate rehabilitative plan will be reviewed by the court before this support is awarded.
Durational support is similar to rehabilitative support but with a duration set by the court, and no rehabilitative plan is necessary for assessment. It is awarded if the receiving spouse needs financial support after the divorce but is not eligible for permanent alimony. Also, durational support will not exceed the length of the marriage. This means that if you’ve been married for five years, the maximum duration of this alimony is also five years only.
Permanent alimony is a type of support that rarely gets awarded. The court will only order this alimony if the receiving spouse doesn’t have the capacity to become self-sufficient in the future. Permanent alimony typically only gets awarded to spouses who have disabilities, are of old age, or care for a minor child with special needs. The length of the marriage will also play a factor in the court’s decision about the necessity of permanent alimony.
