A divorce case can often take months to conclude, therefore temporary court orders may be requested for certain issues such as alimony while the divorce case is pending.

When making a case for temporary alimony, evidence of the incomes, standard of living, and expenses of the parties during their marriage must be presented.

Many avenues of documentation of the standard of living are available.

Photographs of the marital residence and its accoutrements show the court the type of living accommodations to which the parties have been accustomed.

Appraisal reports of recent gifts made by the parties to each other or the children can be helpful, as can copies of credit cared records and canceled checks.

Documentation of the parties’ lifestyle by the movant may lead to the imputing of income not acknowledged by the income-earning spouse.

Board Certified Expert in Marital and Family Law, Gary S. Dolgin is proud to be the author of Chapter 6. “Temporary Relief” in the 6th through 13th editions of The Florida Dissolution of Marriage book.

This book is published by The Florida Bar and is widely used as a reference by attorneys and judges when it comes to divorce issues in Florida.

With over 30 years of experience in divorce and family law, Gary Dolgin has the expertise you need when facing divorce or any type of family law issue.

Happy Valentine’s Day and Happy Birthday To Dr. Ann Dolgin who turns 88 years old today!

Today we honor Gary’s sweet and wonderful mother on her special day.

Gary shares a beautiful dedication to his Mom:

“My mother has always been a trail-blazer.

When my brother, and sister and I were in elementary school, she obtained her Doctorate in Education and showed us, at an early age, the importance of hard work and dedication. She temporarily relocated with us to the University of Miami and my Dad visited every other weekend, traveling from Tampa.

She lost her mother at age 14 to cancer and my grandfather, who worked seven days a week in a laundromat, sacrificed to make sure that my uncle and my mother were the first in the family to attend college. My mother passed on the importance of education to her children.

My brother, sister and I all reside in Tampa. My brother is a Ear, Nose and Throat surgeon, and my sister is an Engineer.

My mother was married to my father for 53 years at the time of his death.

At 88, she is still sharp and enjoying her retirement. She is still a world traveler and is going to Morocco in March.

She enjoys her eight wonderful grandchildren and is always ready to share her life experiences and advice with them. She is also thrilled to have became a great grandmother on February 4th.”

Gary Dolgin’s father, the late Dr. David Dolgin would have celebrated his 92nd birthday tomorrow.

He is missed and remembered warmly by the Dolgin family and those friends and patients who loved him.

Gary shares his touching sentiment in loving memory of his father:

“It is so hard to believe that 14 years ago this month my dad Dr. David Dolgin passed away unexpectedly while traveling with my mother on a three week trip thru Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand.

When he got sick in Bangkok, he called me and asked me to call his office and reschedule his patients. He was still practicing periodontics one day each week at the age of 77. His patients loved him and did not want him to retire.

My dad was Tampa’s first Board Certified Periodontist. His Board Certification inspired me to become a Board Certified Expert In Marital and Family Law as well.

I miss him everyday. I wish we had more time with each other. I am thankful he had the joy of meeting all of his grandchildren, but I wish he could see them now.

He would have been thrilled to be at my son Corey’s wedding last month but his presence was felt during this special occasion. He would have warmly welcomed Melanie into the family.

He and my mother would have been married 67 years this past December.

Today we remember the wonderful husband, father, grandfather and brother that he was.”

“It was great seeing the Mayor of Tampa’s Sister City Le Havre, France Édouard Philippe, who is also the former Prime Minister of France under President Macron. He was in town to renew Tampa’s Sister City relationship with Tampa Mayor Jane Castor and explore student exchanges with USF and other trade opportunities.

Ten years ago I traveled with Tampa lawyers to Le Havre and he hosted a five course French dinner for us and he gave me a book on Le Havre art.

My friend Olivier Jougla, President of the French Bar Association and Former Deputy Mayor of Le Havre, was also visiting Tampa with his family. His family hosted me in their home in 2012 and he stayed at our home in 2013.

We enjoyed a great dinner at the Columbia Restaurant with our French friends.

I am looking forward to traveling to Le Havre with Tampa lawyers and judges next October.”
