Alimony Lawyer Nicole Burns, of Burns Family Law P. A. serving Osceola County for over 23 years.

Alimony, often referred to as spousal support, is a legal obligation for one spouse to provide financial assistance to the other during or after a divorce. The purpose of alimony is to ensure that the financial inequities between the parties are addressed, particularly when one spouse has been financially dependent on the other during the marriage. Alimony can be temporary, rehabilitative, durational, or permanent, depending on the circumstances of the case.

The laws governing alimony vary by jurisdiction, but courts generally consider several factors when determining eligibility and the amount to be awarded. These factors include the length of the marriage, the standard of living established during the marriage, the age and health of each spouse, their earning capacities, and the contributions each made to the marriage, including homemaking and child-rearing responsibilities. Alimony is not automatic and must be requested as part of the divorce proceedings. Without skilled legal representation, a party risks receiving less than what they are entitled to or, conversely, being obligated to pay more than is fair.
