Detailed Advice on the Many Factors of a Common Law Marriage
Common-law marriage refers to the legal union of couples who have cohabitated the same dwelling for an extended period of time but have not undergone an official marriage ceremony. While Florida no longer recognizes the validity of common law marriages entered into after 1968, the state may recognize common law marriages entered into in states that recognize the practice.

- Division of property and debts
- Child custody issues
- Child support matters
