"Common law marriage" is a misnomer, if by it you mean two people living together as a couple for a length of time. It is not a marriage because there has been no recognised legal agreement and the partners have very few legal claims on the other partner by right.
A civil marriage is a legal marriage and carries with it the legal rights of any other marriage as does (in the UK) a civil partnership.

No, as I lived there for 10 years with my boyfriend. Florida is not one of the states that recognizes common law marrianges.
