What To Know About This Component Of Divorce

Spousal support and alimony are designed to help the lesser or non-earning partner maintain their standard of living after divorce. This system is designed so the alimony recipient can move forward without worrying about their financial situation.

There are a few different types of alimony payments that can be awarded including:

  • Temporary alimony: Awarded to the lower earning or nonearning spouse during the divorce process so they can pay their living expenses until a divorce settlement is reached.
  • Rehabilitative alimony: Awarded to the recipient spouse briefly until they can begin providing for themselves by going back to school or receiving training to improve their earning potential.
  • Permanent alimony: Awarded to one spouse if they are unable to support themselves long term after the divorce; it is typically awarded in situations where one spouse has been out of the workforce for a significant amount of time.

Whether you’re seeking permanent spousal support, temporary spousal support or something else altogether, the attorney at Stuart Skok Law LLC can help you figure out how to obtain a positive outcome in the divorce process.
