# Uncontested Divorce in Miramar, Florida (2026 Guide)

FloridaDivorce.law handles a flat-fee $750 uncontested divorce for Miramar residents, prepared and reviewed by a licensed Florida attorney before anything is filed, and done 100% remotely. You and your spouse agree the marriage is over, so we file under Fla. Stat. §61.052 in Broward County. The court charges a separate $409 filing fee. No office visit is needed.

Does Your Miramar Divorce Qualify as Uncontested?

Your Miramar divorce is uncontested when you and your spouse agree on every issue and both are willing to sign. That agreement, not the size of your estate, is what makes a case uncontested. Many Miramar couples assume children or a house automatically make their case complex; they do not, as long as you both agree on how those things are handled.

In my experience, the couples who think they have a "complicated" divorce usually have a simple one with a few details to confirm. A Miramar couple with two cars, a condo, and one child can finish an uncontested divorce cleanly, because they already agree. The work is documenting that agreement correctly so a Broward judge can sign it.

How Much Does an Uncontested Divorce Cost in Miramar?

An uncontested divorce in Miramar has two real costs: the court's filing fee and your attorney fee. Everything else is small and predictable. Our flat fee is $750, and it covers document preparation, attorney review, e-filing, and guidance through final judgment with no surprise billing.

The $750 is the same whether or not you have minor children. When children are involved, the package simply adds a parenting plan, a child support guidelines worksheet, and a UCCJEA affidavit at no extra charge.

What Are the Residency Requirements to File for Divorce in Miramar?

At least one spouse must have lived in Florida for six months before you file, under Fla. Stat. §61.021. This is a hard requirement, and the court will dismiss a petition filed too early. You prove residency with a Florida driver's license, a Florida voter registration, or the sworn testimony of a corroborating witness. Only one of you needs to meet the six-month mark, so a recently relocated spouse can still proceed if the other qualifies.

What if I just moved to Miramar?

Moving to Miramar from another Florida city does not restart your clock, because Fla. Stat. §61.021 looks at Florida residency, not Broward County residency. If you lived in Orlando for two years and then moved to Miramar last month, you already satisfy the six-month rule. If you just arrived from another state and your spouse is not a Florida resident, you generally wait until one of you reaches six months in Florida.

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

You file an uncontested divorce in Miramar by submitting your petition and supporting documents electronically to the Broward County Clerk of the Circuit Court. The case is heard in the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, and most filings flow through the state e-filing portal.

When we handle your case, we prepare and e-file these documents for you and confirm everything is correct for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, so you never log into the portal yourself.

What Forms Do You Need for an Uncontested Divorce in Miramar?

Your Miramar uncontested divorce uses the Florida Supreme Court approved family law forms, available at flcourts.gov. The exact set depends on whether you qualify for the simplified track and whether you have minor children.

Getting the right combination of these forms is where most do-it-yourself filings stall. If you are unsure which track fits your situation, ask Victoria for a quick read on your case.

How Long Does an Uncontested Divorce Take in Miramar?

Many uncontested Miramar cases finalize in about two weeks when both spouses sign promptly, though court scheduling varies. The single fixed delay is the 20-day waiting period after filing under Fla. Stat. §61.19; the rest of the timeline depends mostly on how quickly documents are signed.

We cannot guarantee a finalization date, because the court controls its own calendar. What we control is speed and accuracy on our end, so your case is never the reason for a delay.

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

At a final hearing, a judge confirms that the marriage is irretrievably broken under Fla. Stat. §61.052, that residency is met, and that your settlement is voluntary, then signs the final judgment. For a cooperative uncontested case the hearing is brief and routine. Property terms are addressed under Fla. Stat. §61.075, and if you have children, support is set under Fla. Stat. §61.30.

Can the final hearing be waived in Miramar?

In many simplified and fully agreed cases, the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit can finalize on the documents or hold a short hearing where one party appears. Whether a hearing is required depends on the judge and your specific filing. We prepare your case so it is ready either way, and we tell you exactly what to expect for your assigned division before your case reaches that stage.

Why Miramar Residents Choose FloridaDivorce.law

Miramar residents choose us because the entire process is remote. South Florida traffic between Miramar and the courthouse in Fort Lauderdale is real, and you should not lose a workday for paperwork. We prepare, file, and finalize everything online, which matters for the commuter parents and travel-heavy professionals who fill our healthcare, logistics, and technology workforce.

The fee is flat and clear. You pay $750, the same with or without minor children, and you know that number before you start. There is no hourly meter and no surprise billing at the end, which is the opposite of how traditional retainers, often $5,000 or more, tend to work.

Victoria, our AI assistant, prepares your documents quickly, and then a licensed Florida attorney reviews every page before it is filed. That combination is the core difference: a flat $750, attorney-prepared and reviewed, 100% remote, serving all 67 Florida counties, which is a sharp contrast with DIY form sites that leave you alone and hourly firms that bill the clock.

This matters for Miramar's many families with Caribbean roots, relatives abroad, and property held across more than one jurisdiction, where the paperwork needs a careful, attorney-trained eye to get right the first time. We make sure your Broward County filing accounts for those details.
