Our Story

The firm unites three board-certified marital and family law attorneys—Molly Sasso, Christie Guerrero, and Jay Henderlite—whose combined experience and leadership make the firm one of Northeast Florida’s premier family-law practices.

From its beginnings as separate practices to the merger that formed today’s Sasso Guerrero & Henderlite, the firm has grown by putting people first—helping clients through life’s most challenging moments with skill, strength, and compassion. Today, the firm serves clients throughout Jacksonville and beyond, offering representation built on integrity, collaboration, and results.

Jacksonville Family Law Services

At Sasso Guerrero & Henderlite, we offer comprehensive family-law services to help you protect your family, finances, and future. Whether you are forming a new family, modifying an existing agreement, or facing conflict, we provide skilled representation designed to bring clarity and resolution.

Our Southside attorneys handle the full range of Florida divorce cases. Some clients and their spouses agree on most terms and need an uncontested divorce completed correctly and efficiently. Others face disputes that require hearings, trial preparation, and firm advocacy in court. For couples who want to stay out of the courtroom, we offer collaborative divorce, and we represent clients in mediation, where many cases ultimately settle. Military families can rely on our experience with the federal rules that govern retirement division and parenting around deployments. We also handle annulments when a marriage was not legally valid.

Divorce reshapes a family’s finances, so we focus on outcomes that hold up long after the case closes. That means identifying and dividing marital assets and debts, resolving alimony, and planning for the future. Our managing partners are Board Certified in Marital and Family Law by The Florida Bar, and that depth of experience matters most in cases involving significant assets or high conflict.

Our Southside team also represents parents in child custody and time-sharing matters, parenting plans, child support, and paternity, and we return to court for modifications when life changes. We prepare prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, and we help families grow through adoption, assisted reproductive technology (ART) law, LGBTQ+ family matters, and relative caregiver actions.
