Bernhard Law Firm successfully argued that the 1976 divorce documents should be given full force in Florida under principles of international comity. Despite differences in their judicial system, the foundations of the Venezuelan divorce and assignment were sufficiently similar to those in Florida to obtain enforcement here. The Court granted Bernhard Law Firm a quiet title judgment, declaratory relief, and local recognition of the 1976 divorce decree from Venezuela. Bernhard Law Firm noted that it is pleased with the result for the client.
