What is spousal support?

Spousal support is the term for alimony in California. Spousal support is money that one spouse pays to help support the other after the filing of a dissolution of marriage.

To determine the amount of spousal support, there are many factors to consider. They include but are not limited to: the standard of living during the marriage, the length of the marriage, the age and health of each spouse, earning capacity and job histories of both individuals, and any other relevant factors.

The amount and duration of spousal support can be a complex matter. Attorneys at Family Law Center work diligently to help resolve the issue of spousal support.
