Our Spousal Support Practice
We work with either side in disputes regarding alimony or spousal support, whether you seek to receive alimony or want to contest a request for spousal support. We will help you determine how a court will consider a request for alimony, carefully reviewing with you the factors the court will consider such as:
- the length of the marriage
- the age and health of the parties
- the ability of the parties to be financially self-sufficient
- the conduct of the parties during the marriage
- the standard of living to which the parties were accustomed and which they might expect after a divorce
We will work with you at all stages of a divorce, from pre-divorce planning through temporary support while the divorce is before the court, the trial itself and any need to modify or enforce a final divorce judgment. If the court finds that alimony is warranted, we will advocate for you as the judge considers the amount, frequency and duration of payments.
