Cohabitation & Alimony Investigations in Florida
Protect Your Rights with Nathans Investigations
If you’re paying alimony in Florida and believe your former spouse is now living with someone in a marriage-like relationship, you may have grounds to reduce or terminate those payments. At Nathans Investigations, we specialize in cohabitation and alimony investigations across Florida, helping you gather the legally admissible evidence you need.
What Is Cohabitation Under Florida Law?
In Florida, cohabitation occurs when the recipient of alimony lives with another adult in a relationship that mimics a marriage. Courts may reduce or eliminate alimony if it can be shown that a “supportive relationship” exists.
Common signs of cohabitation include:
-
Sharing a home or apartment
-
Joint bank accounts or shared utility bills
-
Publicly presenting as a couple
-
Sharing household responsibilities
According to Florida Statute 61.14, alimony can be modified if clear and convincing evidence of such a relationship is presented to the court.
Why Hire Nathans Investigations?
Proving cohabitation isn’t easy without a professional. Courts require more than speculation—they require documented evidence. At Nathans Investigations, our licensed Florida private investigators are experts in uncovering the facts.
Our investigative services may include:
-
Physical and mobile surveillance
-
High-resolution video and photographic evidence
-
Social media monitoring and analysis
-
Background checks and financial lifestyle assessments
-
Documentation of shared expenses and residency
All of our investigations are conducted legally, discreetly, and are tailored to meet the needs of your case.
How Cohabitation Affects Alimony in Florida
A successful cohabitation investigation can show that your former spouse no longer needs financial support or is receiving support from another party, both of which can justify an alimony modification.
With the proper documentation provided by Nathans Investigations, your attorney can file a motion to:
-
Reduce alimony payments
-
Terminate alimony altogether
-
Potentially recover overpayments (in some cases)
When to Consider a Cohabitation Investigation
You should consider hiring a Florida private investigator if:
-
You notice your ex-spouse has a sudden change in financial lifestyle
-
They appear to be living with a new partner
-
They’re hiding a relationship to continue receiving alimony
-
You want solid evidence before filing for an alimony modification
The sooner you act, the better your chances of gathering time-sensitive evidence that supports your claim.
