Ensuring fair alimony and spousal support arrangements.

Divorce can significantly impact the financial health of the lower-earning spouse. When one has become accustomed to a lifestyle supported partially or completely by their spouse, adjusting to living on their own income can be difficult. Spousal support (also called alimony or spousal maintenance) is a court-ordered payment from one ex-spouse to the other. It is designed to help support the lower-earning spouse temporarily while they adjust to financial independence. Alimony is rarely permanent, except in cases where the dependent spouse is unable to earn their own income due to old age, health problems, or disability.

At Huffman-Shayeb Law, PLLC, you can partner with a spousal support lawyer to help you establish, modify, or enforce a spousal support order. Our firm serves clients in Phoenix, AZ, and the surrounding areas.

How Can an Alimony Attorney Assist You?

An alimony lawyer can assist you by negotiating an alimony agreement during your divorce proceedings. They can also help modify a spousal support order when circumstances change, and the order is no longer appropriate. If your ex is refusing to comply with a spousal support order, an alimony attorney can help enforce the order and ensure you receive the money owed to you.

The monthly payment amount and duration of a spousal support order are determined by several factors, including:

  • The duration of the marriage
  • The age and health status of each party
  • The gross income of each party
  • The earning potential of each party
  • The amount of time required for the dependent spouse to obtain education or job training
  • The property settlement or asset division agreement of the divorce
