Different Florida County
by: FALDP Staff

Carlos,
Lawyers in Florida are members of the Florida Bar, which is a statewide organization. Since you stated your "future x-wife", we assume that the Volusia County lawyer is your wife's divorce attorney. The state of Florida has personal jurisdiction over family law matters of people who reside in Florida. However, there are some rules as to venue that may or may not apply in your situation. "Venue" is the county and circuit where a family law matter may be heard. For example, if you have children, and you and the children reside in Orange County and your wife files for divorce in Volusia County, you may be able to contest that due to Volusia County being an inconvenient forum.


Venue
Definition

In general, a place or location in which something takes place. The proper place to hold a civil or criminal trial, usually because important related events have taken place there.
