Spousal support, or alimony as it is commonly referred to, is financial support which is designed to help both spouses maintain, as closely as possible, the quality of life they enjoyed during the marriage. The obvious challenge of spousal support is that divorce takes one household and divides it into two. What previously paid for one mortgage will be paying for two.
For successful executives and professionals and their spouses, it is highly important to secure the representation of an attorney who understands how to effectively present a case for or against spousal support. A key element of being able to do so may rely on the use of financial experts to create evidence of income.
At Stolar & Associates, our attorneys bring in outside financial experts to help our clients achieve their spousal support goals. We have been providing superior family law representation to successful executives and professionals for more than 25 years. We understand how to create and implement strategies that can create effective resolutions for our clients.
We know that the courts will look at a variety of factors when determining spousal support. These factors include:
- Need
- Ability to pay
- Each party's assets and debts
- Age and health of the parties
- Earning potential
- Contributions to the marriage (e.g., homemaking, supporting the other spouse's education)
