If you want a divorce, call a local family law attorney. If you would prefer to do it yourself, there are self help forms available at www.flcourts.org .

Well, if you are in agreement on all issues, divorce can be finalized in about 30 days from filing and no court appearance is necessary. If not, process takes a bit longer depending on the issues. Look at website or . Many of us that work in Lee and Collier Counties offer FREE consultation. Make some calls.

It would probably be easiest to file your divorce here in Florida and resolve issues of equitable distribution of marital assets and debts before moving to NY. If you move back to NY, you must first establish residency there before you could file in NY, and NY would not have jurisdiction of any marital assets here in Florida or over your husband for alimony purposes. There are other issues that would complicate things if you filed in NY. This also assume there are no children, which you did not mention in your question.
