The way that spousal support, also known as alimony or spousal maintenance, is handled varies from county to county. We are familiar with these variations, as well as variations between the way that temporary support is handled as opposed to the way that permanent orders of spousal support are created.
There are a wide range of questions that need to be taken into account when determining the amount of spousal support:
- Has there been domestic violence?
- Has one spouse been a primary caregiver and not worked outside the home?
- What financial obligation will help to provide a stable future and quality of life and for how long?
- Is there a need for a Gavron warning?
- Is there a need for a vocational evaluation of a spouse or is there a need to investigate why a spouse suddenly quit work?
For both spouses involved in the divorce, we emphasize becoming prepared for life as an individual in a manner that fosters independence, stability and cooperation.
Disputes Over Spousal Support
Disputes can arise in a variety of ways. One spouse may go as far as quitting a job in order to avoid having to pay support. While this is an extreme example, it is one that we have the experience to address.
We can also handle modification of spousal support, as well as enforcement when support is not being paid.
