Spousal Support / Alimony

Spousal support or partner support, formerly known as alimony in California, is an area of family law that is plagued by public misconceptions and misinformation. It is also often a complex part of a divorce, determined by many factors, some or all of which may change over the course of the proceedings or years later.

Once spousal support is established, enforcement, modification, and termination all may require further court orders or written agreement.
