When families face separation, it takes an experienced divorce and family law firm to protect your rights and to assist you in the process. It is essential that you have representation that will quickly respond to the needs of your family by providing comprehensive support for divorce and related issues, such as child support, child custody (allocation of parental responsibilities), and alimony/maintenance determinations.
Alimony or maintenance awards offer financial assistance to keep the recipient stable after a divorce or legal separation.
There are several factors that the Court will consider when determining if maintenance is necessary. This determination may be reached by agreement, during negotiations or by the Court. The law provides guidelines and factors for calculating maintenance amounts and determining the constraints of duration.
Having an advocate on your side is essential when navigating a divorce.
