Alimony

Alimony Investigations: How to lower or stop alimony liability. 

 

 

Whether you call it alimony, maintenancespousal support, or spousal maintenance, is a legal obligation on a person to provide financial support to his or her spouse before or after marital separation or divorce. 

In general, there are five ways to request a change in alimony. 

  1. The involuntary loss of a job or wage reduction
  2. An illness or disability that prevents the paying spouse from working
  3. The remarriage of the supported spouse
  4. The supported spouse's cohabitation with a new partner, or
  5. The increase in former spouse’s income.

In general, there are four types of alimony:

  1. Temporary alimony: Support ordered when the parties are separated prior to divorce. Also called alimony pendente lite, which is Latin, meaning, "pending the suit".
  2. Rehabilitative alimony: Support given to a lesser-earning spouse for a period of time necessary to acquire work outside the home and become self-sufficient.
  3. Permanent alimony: Support paid to the lesser-earning spouse until the death of the payor, the death of the recipient, or the remarriage of the recipient.
  4. Reimbursement alimony: Support given as a reimbursement for expenses incurred by a spouse during the marriage (such as educational expenses).
