Mandatory Disclosures In Florida Divorces
The divorce process can be demanding at times, but it is all to make sure that the final orders are fair and equitable for both parties. Mandatory disclosures require both spouses to provide comprehensive financial information, promoting transparency and fairness in the court’s decisions.

What Are Mandatory Disclosures?
In a Florida divorce, both spouses are legally required to reveal their full economic situation by submitting financial documents to the court – a process called mandatory disclosures. These documents provide a clear financial picture, allowing the court to make fair and accurate decisions regarding property division, alimony, child support and other matters.
What Financial Documents Are Required?
The mandatory disclosure requirements include, but are not limited to:
- Financial affidavit
- Tax returns (last three years)
- Pay stubs (last three months)
- Bank statements (last three months)
- Loan applications (last 12 months)
- Retirement accounts documentation
- Debt statements
I can help you fulfill these mandatory disclosure requirements accurately and on time, minimizing stress and making sure you are in compliance with the legal process.
Why Are Mandatory Disclosures Important?
Mandatory disclosures promote and enhance transparency between both parties and the court. They help in preventing deception and facilitating informed decision-making during a divorce. I have the legal (and personal) divorce experience to guide you in compiling and submitting mandatory disclosure documents.
