Unified Family Court Judges from the 17th joined peers statewide at the Florida Conference of Circuit Court Judges earlier this month. During the conference, they explored hot topics in domestic relations—including updates in alimony law, identifying psychological disorders and developmental disabilities in family cases, overcoming 50/50 timesharing presumptions, and the latest case law from 2025. Judge Alperstein taught a session “Show me the money – beyond the basics of equitable distribution.” Staying sharp to better serve families!
