Because they can remain in effect for many years, spousal maintenance and support agreements can involve high financial sums and can comprise the single highest total dollar figure in a divorce financial settlement. Later modifications to support agreements can be difficult and must involve a significant change in financial circumstances. It is therefore usually recommended to establish your spousal support rights at the time of you divorce.
Heidi E. Opinsky and the attorney team of the Law Offices of Heidi E. Opinsky can fight effectively to support your spousal maintenance rights and goals. Judges consider several factors when deciding alimony questions, including the parties' relative incomes and ability to earn money, the parties' age and health, the length of the marriage, the property involved and the conduct of the parties.
We can work to ensure that you receive or pay out a fair alimony payment and can work with you to consider payment options, including temporary, permanent, lump-sum and installment payments.
