Florida’s Unified Family Court System.

Those in the know understand the acronym UFC…no this is not hand-to-hand combat in the octagon.  For many the UFC decides the future of families in the State of Florida.  It provides a unified system of dealing with family issues in a Florida divorce case.  The UFC hears cases regarding domestic relations, etc.

The court has many issues to consider in the child’s long-term best interest such as –

1.  Domestic Violence

2.  Financial Support

3.  Time with each Parent and Sibling

4.  Co-Parenting Arrangements

When sorting out these critical issues you need attorneys with decades of experience in dealing with Florida’s UFC system.  Just the right fit for you may well be Kidder and Bennet.  They are Pinellas County’s knowledgeable UFC veterans.  Nat Kidder and Bill Bennet will bring the expertise that you need.  Just call them for a free consultation at (727) 821-8000.

What is Racketeering?

All right, see…you ain’t takin’ me without a fight!  Sometimes we associate racketeering with organized crime or for the older of us…with Al Capone.  It really is as simple as this.  If you have been accused of offering a dishonest service in order to solve a problem that did not previously exist…that is racketeering.

Some examples of this crime include extortion, being accused of loan sharking, money laundering, bribery, or obstruction of justice.  The prosecutor has the option to seize all of the assets of the accused.  This way, an individual or a group cannot move those assets into a “shell” corporation to protect them regardless of the verdict.

Racketeering is complicated and often misunderstood.  When you are caught in the middle of it you need the best legal counsel available.  In St. Petersburg and throughout Florida turn to Kidder and Bennet.  Nat and Bill are experienced Pinellas County racketeering attorneys.  Make that call for a free consultation at (727) 821-8000.

That’s My Home!

You worked for it.  You saved for it.  It was meant to be an investment that should last for decades.  Now, an impending divorce puts your continued residence in your castle in question.  You need to think carefully how you will participate in the future of the most expensive purchase that you have ever made for your family.

There are options for dividing real estate.  Some of them are –

1.  Sell it and split the proceeds.

2.  One partner may buy out the other in order to stay in the home.
3.  Remain a co-owner until such time that you can sort things out.

When it comes to this important life decision you need council.  There are a couple of divorce lawyers in Pinellas County who have a combined half-century dealing with these matters.  Trust St. Petersburg Florida family attorneys Nat Kidder and Bill Bennet.  Arrange an appointment at their 275 96th Ave. North office in St. Pete by calling (727) 821-8000.

What is D-6 Clearance in the State of Florida?

In this day and age D-6 could refer to a number of things such as airport security or immigration.  In this particular case, it refers to your driver’s license in the State of Florida.  Here is what happens.  If you get a criminal citation or traffic ticket and you fail to appear in court or pay a fine the Sunshine State will issue a D-6 suspension.

Now you must apply for a D-6 form to begin the process of reinstating your Florida driver’s license.  If you think that just saying “Sorry, I will pay the ticket now,” is enough you would be wrong.  This act may actually trigger yet ANOTHER suspension of your driver’s license in the state!  That sounds odd, doesn’t it?

The answer is obvious.  You contact a law firm that has dealt with this issue many dozens of times over the years.  In the St. Petersburg area, you turn to the combined 50 years of experience of Kidder and Bennett.  Nat Kidder and Bill Bennett have been your Florida driver’s license suspension defense attorneys for many years.  Call them today at (727) 821-8000.
