What Is This Process Like?
A divorce settlement involving spousal support, also called alimony, marital support or spousal maintenance, can be a complicated, drawn-out process. There are many things to consider when seeking and obtaining spousal support.
To start, there are different types of alimony you may be eligible to receive. The first, called temporary support, can provide funds to you while you’re waiting for your final divorce settlement. The second in California, which most are more familiar with, is long-term spousal support. This type of alimony is designed to help set you up for the future after your divorce.
Determining spousal support or alimony payments involves evaluating a variety of factors. Your spousal support lawyer can guide you through this and advocate for you while the courts examine things like:
- Income and earning potential of each spouse
- The standard of living during your marriage
- The needs of each spouse
- Contributions each spouse made to the marriage
- Age and health of each spouse
The amount of alimony and the length of time you can receive it will depend on these circumstances. The goal of alimony and spousal support is to provide funds until you can eventually support yourself. Spousal support is also designed to ensure both parties, recipient and payer, can maintain a similar standard of living.
