    Default Florida Emancipation Procedure

    Im almost 17 (a week and a half) but I graduated early and am the manager of a smoothie shop and work two other jobs.

    Im perfectly fine on my own. I bought my own car, pay rent in my mothers house and pay for my insurance. How do I go about getting emancipated?

    In Florida, you need to convince your parents to file a petition for your emancipation.

    If you want to be emancipated get an attorney and have a list of the reasons why you want to be emancipated and one of how you will support yourself if you are granted emancipation. Or if you can't afford and attorney then call the Legal Aid office in your county.

    bebe OP needs to get her parents to file the petition. If Op cannot get that nothing else matters

    I don't know of any legal aid offices which help minors emancipate. If it's an abuse situation they are likely to defer to protective services, and if not they have more pressing cases to attend to.
