# Uncontested Divorce in Coral Springs, Florida (2026 Guide)

FloridaDivorce.law handles a flat-fee $750 uncontested divorce for Coral Springs residents, 100% remote and attorney-prepared and reviewed before anything reaches the court. You pay the $409 Broward County filing fee separately. Florida lets you divorce once the marriage is irretrievably broken under Fla. Stat. §61.052, so you never have to prove fault. Both spouses sign, and we handle the rest.

Does Your Coral Springs Divorce Qualify as Uncontested?

Your divorce is uncontested when you and your spouse agree on every issue, even if you own property or share children. Agreement, not simplicity, is what makes a case uncontested. You can still have a house, retirement accounts, and a parenting plan and qualify, as long as neither of you is fighting over the terms.

In my experience, many Coral Springs couples assume their case is too complicated for a flat fee because they own a home or have professional incomes from medical or legal careers. It rarely is. What matters is whether you agree, not how much you own. Two physicians who divide their assets amicably are far easier to finalize than a childless couple still arguing over a car.

How Much Does an Uncontested Divorce Cost in Coral Springs?

An uncontested divorce in Coral Springs has two cost layers: the court's own charges and the attorney fee. Our attorney fee is a flat $750, and the court costs are paid directly to the Broward County Clerk of the Circuit Court.

The $750 is the same whether or not you have minor children. There is no surprise billing, no hourly meter, and no separate charge for the extra parenting documents children require. That is a deliberate contrast with hourly-billing firms that quote a low retainer and then bill against it.

What Are the Residency Requirements to File for Divorce in Coral Springs?

At least one spouse must have lived in Florida for six months before the petition is filed, under Fla. Stat. §61.021. This is a strict requirement, and the court cannot grant a divorce without it. You prove residency with a Florida driver's license, a Florida voter registration, or the sworn testimony of a corroborating witness. Coral Springs residency counts as Florida residency, so a long-time local easily meets this rule.

What if I just moved to Coral Springs?

If you recently moved to Coral Springs from another state, you must wait until you have completed six months of Florida residency before filing. The six months can be met by either spouse, so if your husband or wife has lived in Florida long enough, you can file now even if you arrived last month. We confirm this with you before preparing anything, so no time or filing fee is wasted.

How Do You File for an Uncontested Divorce in Coral Springs? (Step-by-Step)

Filing an uncontested divorce in Coral Springs follows a defined sequence through the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit and the Broward County Clerk of the Circuit Court.

We handle steps two through six for you, so you are not navigating the portal alone.

What Forms Do You Need for an Uncontested Divorce in Coral Springs?

The core forms come from the Florida Supreme Court's approved family law set, available at flcourts.gov. The exact forms depend on whether you qualify for the simplified track and whether you have children.

Getting the right form for your exact situation is where many self-filed cases stall. Not sure which forms apply to you? Ask Victoria, our AI assistant, anytime: Ask Victoria

How Long Does an Uncontested Divorce Take in Coral Springs?

Many Coral Springs uncontested cases finalize in about two weeks when both spouses sign promptly, though court scheduling can extend that. The single fixed delay is the statutory waiting period; everything else moves at the speed of your signatures.

We cannot guarantee a specific date because the court controls the calendar, but prompt signing is the biggest factor within your control.

What Happens at the Final Hearing for an Uncontested Divorce in Coral Springs?

The final hearing is short and routine, often lasting only a few minutes. A judge in the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit confirms that you meet the residency requirement, that the marriage is irretrievably broken, and that your settlement is voluntary. The judge then signs the Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage, and you are divorced. There is no testimony about fault and no cross-examination.

Can the final hearing be waived in Coral Springs?

In many regular uncontested cases, only the petitioner appears briefly, and some courts allow the hearing to proceed efficiently or by limited means depending on the judge and case type. In the simplified dissolution track, both spouses generally appear together at one short final hearing. We tell you exactly what your case requires and prepare you for it so there are no surprises on the day.
