Spousal Support
Spousal Support Lawyers
Spousal support, or alimony, may be awarded to a spouse who requires financial assistance after a separation or divorce. The purpose of spousal support is to ensure that one spouse is not left financially disadvantaged due to the breakdown of the marriage. The amount and duration of support are influenced by factors such as the length of the marriage, income disparity, and each spouse’s needs.
Understanding Spousal Support
Spousal support can be awarded temporarily or permanently, depending on the circumstances of the divorce. Factors like the recipient spouse’s ability to support themselves, the standard of living during the marriage, and contributions to the marriage are considered. Spousal support is intended to balance the financial effects of divorce, ensuring that both parties are able to maintain a similar standard of living.
The Impact of Spousal Support
Spousal support can provide critical financial relief, especially for those who may have sacrificed career advancement or earning potential to support the family. It helps ensure that one spouse is not left destitute while the other moves on with their life.
