What Is Alimony?

In some divorce proceedings, the judge will order one spouse to financially support the other spouse by paying them alimony. The goal behind this is to keep both spouses in the same standard of living they enjoyed while they were married. There are various types of alimony, including:

• Permanent periodic alimony
• Durational alimony
• Bridge-the-gap alimony
• Rehabilitative alimony
• Temporary alimony

It’s important to remember that alimony is awarded on a case-by-case basis, with courts considering factors such as whether one spouse needs support and if the other spouse is capable of providing support. Although there are no guarantees when it comes to the case outcome, an experienced alimony lawyer should be able to provide valuable insight into whether alimony is likely to be awarded in your case.
