Spousal Support / Alimony
Spousal Support Lawyers based in Phoenix, AZ
Divorce can have a significant financial impact on both parties, especially those that earn less or have stayed home during the marriage. Spousal support may be ordered by the court to ensure a smoother post-divorce transition. Spousal support, also known as alimony in other states, is usually set for a specific amount of time, and for a specific dollar amount. Many factors go into determining the duration and amount of spousal support. 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 attorneys assist clients in Phoenix, AZ and the surrounding areas. Huffman-Shayeb Law, PLLC is also able to assist with modifications, when such modifications are permitted under your divorce decree.
How Can an Alimony Attorney Assist You?
A spousal support lawyer can help you negotiate an alimony agreement during your divorce proceedings. They can also help you modify a spousal support order when circumstances have changed, and the order is no longer appropriate. If your ex is refusing to comply with a spousal support order, an attorney can also help you enforce it and get the money you are owed.
The monthly payment amount and duration of a spousal support order is determined by a variety of 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 it would take for the dependent spouse to obtain education/job training
