Spousal support can be a complex and unpredictable area of family law, with many variables to consider. Legal guidance will help ensure that your best interests are protected and that an equitable financial arrangement is made between separating and divorcing spouses. Spousal support is of particular importance when a significant difference exists between the parties in areas such as income or income earning capacity, education, skills and opportunities to work. Other considerations may include the length of the relationship, age of the parties, roles in the relationship and prenuptial agreements, to name a few.
Having a member of the Watson Goepel LLP Family Law group assist you with the complexities surrounding the issue of spousal support can be a wise investment in your financial future.
