Alimony

Alimony or spousal support is where one party provides the other with funds in order to meet a party’s financial needs after the termination of their marriage.  There are many factors involved with alimony, including the entitlement to alimony, and the type, amount, and duration of alimony.   The different types of alimony include temporary, lump-sum, bridge-the-gap, rehabilitative, durational, and permanent.  Although parties can sometimes reach an agreement regarding alimony, the issue of alimony is usually a contentious and complicated one.  Whether for the spouse paying or the spouse receiving alimony, Artemis Family Law Group has the knowledge and experience to optimally resolve alimony for each individual’s unique situation.
