Nothing too big or small
Divorce services for every situation
Uncontested divorce
If you and your spouse already agree on key issues, an experienced attorney can help ensure your paperwork is completed correctly, your agreements are properly documented, and your divorce is finalized as smoothly as possible.
Get started
Filing for divorce
Whether you're filing for an uncontested divorce or dealing with more complex issues, an experienced divorce attorney can help you understand your options, complete the necessary paperwork, and take the next step with confidence.
Get started
Time-sharing & parenting plans
Whether you're creating a parenting plan, negotiating time-sharing arrangements, or dealing with a dispute, legal guidance can help you protect your relationship with your children and work toward a solution.
Get started
Spousal support
Spousal support, often called alimony, can be one of the most complex issues in a divorce. Whether you're seeking support or may be required to pay it, an experienced attorney can help you understand your rights, obligations, and the factors that may affect your case's outcome.
Get started
Divorce settlements
Many divorces are resolved through negotiated settlement agreements rather than a trial. An experienced attorney can help you evaluate proposals, negotiate key terms, and work toward a resolution that protects your interests while helping you avoid unnecessary conflict.
Get started
Contested divorce
If you and your spouse disagree on issues like time-sharing, finances, or dividing assets, having the right legal support can make all the difference. Work with an experienced divorce attorney who can help you navigate conflict, protect your rights, and move your case forward.
Get started
Responding to divorce papers
Understanding your rights and responsibilities early can help you avoid costly mistakes and protect your interests. Work with a divorce attorney to help you evaluate your options and develop a strategy for moving forward.
Get started
Child support
Child support can have a real impact on both parents' futures. Understanding how support is calculated, what factors courts consider, and what options may be available can help you make informed decisions.
Get started
Property and asset division
Dividing property during a divorce involves more than deciding who gets what. Homes, retirement accounts, investments, businesses, and debts may all need to be considered. Legal guidance can help you understand your options and work toward a fair division of marital assets.
Get started
Post-divorce modifications
Life changes after divorce. Whether you need to modify time-sharing, child support, spousal support, or another court order, an attorney can help you understand your options and pursue changes that reflect your circumstances.

Your questions, answered
Jacksonville and Duval County merged into one consolidated city-county government in 1968, so there's no separate municipal court — divorce cases go through the Fourth Judicial Circuit's Family Law Division at the Duval County Courthouse, 501 W. Adams Street. Six family law judges (Divisions FM-B through FM-G) hear these cases, and the Clerk of Courts' Family Law Department accepts filings.
Yes. Under the Fourth Judicial Circuit's Alternative Dispute Resolution Unit, any family law case that involves contested issues is court-ordered to mediation — this applies whether you're self-represented or represented by an attorney, and it's an automatic step rather than something either spouse has to request.
Duval County's Clerk of Courts charges $409 for a Petition for Dissolution of Marriage (also $409 for simplified dissolution, requiring both spouses' signatures), $401 for a stand-alone custody action, and $301 for a parenting-plan/time-sharing petition. Filers without an attorney also pay a separate $12 fee. That's apart from attorney costs — with Marble Law, you pay only for the services you need.
You can file a free Application for Determination of Civil Indigent Status with the Clerk's Family Law Department; if approved, the filing fee is waived. One wrinkle: the $12 administrative fee still applies even to indigent filers — it isn't waived along with the rest.
Most Duval County filers use the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office Civil Process Unit, which charges $40 per person to serve a summons and complaint but can only serve process within Duval County. Documents must reach the Civil Unit at least 11 business days before any court date; a privately hired Duval County Special Process Server is the usual alternative otherwise.
Yes — in Duval County, that requirement is met through specific locally approved providers rather than one single class: First Coast Behavior Solutions' "Separate Yet Together," Hope Haven's "Children First," and LJD Jewish Family & Community Services' "Great Kids through Great Co-Parenting." The Clerk's office or 4th Circuit Family Court Services can confirm the current list.
