Hymowitz Law Firm
Not all divorces are straightforward. When significant assets, disputed custody arrangements, allegations of hidden income, or deeply contested legal issues are involved, a divorce can quickly evolve into high-stakes litigation. These cases demand more than general legal knowledge — they require a attorney who has spent decades navigating the complexities of Florida family law, inside and outside the courtroom.
Attorney Michael A. Hymowitz brings over 30 years of experience to some of the most challenging divorce cases in South Florida. Board Certified by the Florida Bar in Marital and Family Law — a distinction held by fewer than 1% of Florida attorneys — Mr. Hymowitz combines courtroom skill with strategic negotiation to protect what matters most to his clients.
Many divorces involve disputes that go far beyond simply dividing a home and a bank account. A case may be considered complex when it involves one or more of the following:
Significant real estate holdings, business ownership interests, investment portfolios, retirement accounts, stock options, or assets held across multiple states or countries all require careful legal and financial analysis to ensure a fair and accurate division.
When one or both spouses own a business, determining its true value — and distinguishing between marital and non-marital interests — can become one of the most contested aspects of a divorce. Mr. Hymowitz works alongside experienced forensic accountants and business valuation experts to protect your financial interests.
In some divorces, one party attempts to conceal income, underreport earnings, or transfer assets in order to gain an unfair advantage in proceedings. Uncovering these tactics requires an attorney who knows where to look and how to compel full financial disclosure.
When parents cannot agree on a parenting plan, the well-being of children becomes the central issue before the court. Mr. Hymowitz has extensive experience advocating for parenting arrangements that serve the child's best interests, supported by psychological experts, evaluators, and guardian ad litems when necessary.
Determining whether alimony is appropriate, what type should be awarded, and for how long, requires a detailed analysis of each spouse's financial circumstances, earning capacity, and the length of the marriage. These determinations can significantly impact both parties for years to come.
When spouses live in different states or countries, questions of jurisdiction, proper venue, and enforcement of orders add another layer of legal complexity that must be carefully navigated.
Most family law disputes can be resolved without going to trial. Through skilled negotiation and mediation, attorney Hymowitz works to achieve settlements that serve his clients’ goals while avoiding the time and expense of a full trial. However, when the other side is unwilling to negotiate in good faith or the stakes are simply too high to compromise, the Hymowitz Law Firm is fully prepared to advocate for you in court.
Mr. Hymowitz’s experience as a judicial law clerk for the Honorable Judith L. Kreeger of the 11th Circuit Court of Florida gave him a rare, behind-the-scenes perspective on how judges evaluate family law cases and the parties who come before them. That insight — combined with more than three decades of litigation practice — means he understands not just how to argue a case, but how to win one.
His appellate track record further demonstrates the depth of his legal expertise. Mr. Hymowitz has handled cases that resulted in published decisions establishing significant legal precedents in Florida family law — a reflection of the caliber of representation the firm provides.
