FAST FLORIDA DIVORCE
Under Florida law, no final judgment of dissolution of marriage can be entered until at least 20 days have passed from the date the original Petition for Dissolution of Marriage is filed in the Circuit Court. The court can waive the 20-day delay and finalize sooner if waiting would cause injustice. Filing sooner starts the clock sooner, but there is no guarantee the judge assigned to your case will sign the final judgment on day 21, timing depends on the judge’s calendar and the court’s workload. We file your case in Lee County, Florida, which generally processes agreed divorce cases much faster than any other county in the State of Florida. Any couple can mutually agree to file their case in Lee County, Florida, regardless of where they reside.

Why We File in Lee County, Florida
We prepare and file your case in Lee County — one of the few Florida counties that:
- Does not require court hearings for uncontested divorces
- Processes uncontested cases separately, avoiding docket delays
- Finalizes cases as soon as Florida law allows
This enables the judge to approve your case shortly after the 20-day waiting period — without the months-long delays seen in many other counties.

- Lump your case in with contested divorces and other civil matters
- Take months to route your file to a judge due to backlog
Even if your case is 100% uncontested, many counties treat it the same as a contested one — which causes unnecessary delays.
