Spousal Support & Alimony

As a spousal support lawyer in Riverside, California, Laura Rosauer understands that a divorce can be financially and emotionally devastating to your entire family, but it can be even harder if you don’t have the means to support yourself outside the marriage. Our certified family law mediator and divorce attorney in Riverside County will help you set aside your differences in order to reach a fair and equitable agreement about spousal support or alimony and will help you look at a number of issues that can impact spousal support including:
  • How long have you been married?
  • Has one spouse been a stay at home parent or homemaker?
  • What was your marital standard of living?
  • Does either spouse or the children have health issues or special needs?
  • Does one spouse lack marketable skills or require time to acquire them?
  • How has each spouse contributed to the other’s career or education?
  • Can the supporting spouse afford to pay alimony?
  • How long should spousal support last?
  • Do changes in child support change the amount of spousal support?
  • How does retirement affect spousal support?
How long does spousal support last? In some cases, spousal support is only in effect for a set period of time in order to allow a spouse to obtain the skills necessary to support him or herself or obtain employment. However, in the case of long-term marriages, spousal support can be more permanent. Mediation can help determine the amount of spousal support and how long it will last.
