Alimony Can Affect Your Future
Divorce can change your finances in many ways. Alimony, or spousal support, is money one spouse may pay the other after a marriage ends. The court looks at income, job status, and marriage length to decide the amount. A fair alimony plan helps both people move forward.
We Help Both Sides in Alimony Cases
At Goldman & Associates, we protect the rights of both the receiving and paying spouse. We work to create fair agreements that consider each person’s financial situation.
- For the Receiving Spouse. If you earned less than your spouse or gave up your career to support the marriage, you may struggle financially after divorce. We help you secure the support you need to maintain stability. We gather financial records, employment history, and cost-of-living details to prove why alimony is necessary. If your ex-spouse challenges the amount, we fight to make sure you receive fair support.
- For the Paying Spouse. If you are ordered to pay alimony, you may worry about unfair payments or long-term financial burdens. Some spouses pay more than they can afford, while others face payments that last longer than needed. We help make sure your obligations are reasonable. We present clear evidence of your income, expenses, and financial responsibilities. If your financial situation changes, we assist in requesting modifications to lower or end payments.
