Family Law Attorneys Serving Miami, FL
A Miami-Dade divorce or custody case moves through the Eleventh Judicial Circuit on its own schedule, not yours. Kalish & Jaggars works with Miami families who want more than a fast read on their case: a strategy they understand, built by attorneys already familiar with how Miami-Dade’s Family Division actually operates. You won’t leave with a quote and a stack of paperwork. You’ll leave with a plan: what happens next, in what order, and why, laid out before fees ever come up. That’s the strategy meeting: listen first, explain the law, build the plan, then talk numbers.
The office sits at 701 Brickell Avenue, on the north end of Brickell Avenue near its intersection with SE 7th Street, overlooking Biscayne Bay. Family law matters filed from this office are heard at the Lawson E. Thomas Courthouse Center, 175 NW 1st Avenue, Miami, FL 33128, home to the Eleventh Judicial Circuit’s Family Court Division, a short drive from the office.

Why Choose Our Miami Divorce Lawyers?
A strategy meeting, not a sales pitch
Other consultations end with a quote. Ours starts there. You talk, we listen; no assumptions before we’ve heard your situation. We explain the law in plain English, build an actual plan, and only then discuss fees, so you know exactly what you’re paying for and why.
Built around Miami-Dade’s courts
Miami-Dade sits within the Eleventh Judicial Circuit, and family matters from this office are heard at the Lawson E. Thomas Courthouse Center. Understanding that circuit’s filing requirements, deadlines, and division-specific expectations shapes how we prepare a case from the first meeting, not after it’s already filed.
Capability without the theatrics
High-asset divorces, contested custody, paternity disputes: Kalish & Jaggars handles the complicated matters, not just the straightforward ones. We do it in plain English, without unnecessary escalation, and in Spanish when that’s what a family needs.
