• Florida Divorce Intake v2

    This is a Florida Divorce (Dissolution of Marriage, No Minor Children) document-preparation intake. A 50% deposit is due before any work begins, and no work starts until it is paid; the balance is due at completion. You will receive an invoice. Your intake is reviewed for completeness, the draft is prepared from the information you provide, and a protected or watermarked PDF draft may be delivered for your review. Legal advice, tax advice, retirement-division (QDRO) advice, alimony advice, and child-support advice are not included.

  • ⚠️ Nonlawyer Disclosure & Work Order Agreement

    I am not an attorney licensed to practice law in the State of Florida, and I may not give legal advice or accept fees for legal advice. The information and documents provided through this service are based solely on the information you supply.

    If you need legal advice, interpretation of the law, or representation in court, you should contact a licensed attorney.

    By submitting this form, you acknowledge:

    You are requesting document preparation services only.

    You understand that no attorney-client relationship is formed.

    You are responsible for reviewing your documents for accuracy before signing.

    Disclosure from Nonlawyer (Rule 10-2.2(c)(2), Rules Regulating The Florida Bar)

    Jonathan Rexford told me that he is a nonlawyer and may not give legal advice, cannot tell me what my rights or remedies are, cannot tell me how to testify in court, and cannot represent me in court.

    Rule 10-2.1(h) of the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar defines a paralegal as a person who works under the supervision of a member of The Florida Bar, an out-of-state lawyer engaged in the authorized practice of law in Florida, or a foreign lawyer engaged in the authorized practice of law in Florida and who performs specifically delegated substantive legal work for which the supervising lawyer is responsible. Only persons who meet the definition may call themselves paralegals. Jonathan Rexford informed me that he is not a paralegal as defined by the rule and cannot call himself a paralegal.

    Jonathan Rexford told me that he may only type the factual information provided by me in writing into the blanks on the form. Except for typing, Jonathan Rexford may not tell me what to put in the form and may not complete the form for me. However, if using a form approved by the Supreme Court of Florida, Jonathan Rexford may ask me factual questions to fill in the blanks on the form and may also tell me how to file the form.

    Every document prepared for you will state that it was completed with the assistance of:

    Short form or long form: Florida uses the short form, 12.902(b), if your individual gross (before-tax) income is less than $50,000 a year, and the long form, 12.902(c), if it is $50,000 or more (Fla. Fam. L. R. P. 12.285). If either of you earns $50,000 or more, or you have significant assets or business income, tell us — we may need the long form and will follow up with a few extra questions.
