Spousal Support Considerations

Although the amount of spousal support is based on a formulaic equation, judges have complete discretion when determining if it should be awarded. During this process, a judge may consider many factors, including:

• If either spouse is a homemaker
• Either spouse’s culpability for the break-up of the marriage
• The individual needs of each spouse
• Educational factors
• Employment factors
• Amount of assets and property each spouse is receiving in the settlement

Since each case is uniquely complex in its own way, our attorneys work with you to understand your individual needs and will fight on your behalf for the best outcome.
