(Fla. 3d DCA 2018) (“We review a judgment rendered after a bench trial to

substantial evidence. We review the trial court’s purely legal conclusions de
novo.”) (citations omitted); Marsh v. Marsh, 419 So. 2d 629, 630 (Fla. 1982)
(“The credibility of the witnesses and the weight given their testimony,
however, is a question for the trial court.”); Martin v. Martin, 43 So. 3d 195,

(“Where a contract is unambiguous, it shall be enforced according to its plain
language. In such a situation, the trial court must confine itself to the four
corners of the contract, because the language itself is the best evidence of
the parties' intent, and its plain meaning controls.”) (citation omitted).
