Divorce question

A friend of mine married in Florida but they reside in a different State. She and her husband have separated and it looks like a divorce on the horizon.

Which State's laws will apply to this divorce (regarding asset distribution, custody, whatever else)? The State they were married in (the State on their marriage license) or the State that they live in?

Thanks.

IANAL.

I would think where they reside since that is where their assets would be divided.

You generally file in your state/county of residence.

Check your state laws to be sure.
