San Diego Divorce Attorneys

Spousal Support & Alimony Lawyers

When there is a significant discrepancy in the earning capacity of each partner during a divorce, it may become necessary for one person to provide spousal support to the other.  Also known as alimony, spousal support is a way for the partner who makes less to maintain the same quality of life that they enjoyed before the divorce.  Negotiating and determining spousal support can be a cumbersome process, and even in the most amicable of circumstances it may be necessary to consult a lawyer.  At Claery & Green, our family lawyers provide representation to individuals who are either seeking spousal support themselves or have spouses who are trying to obtain alimony from them.  No matter which side you are on, a San Diego divorce attorney can help you.

In cases where one spouse worked for the duration of the marriage while the other spouse took care of the home and children, the working spouse may be ordered to provide alimony to the non-working spouse.  Likewise, if one partner makes significantly more money at their job then the other, they may be directed to pay spousal support to the other spouse.  Ultimately a judge will decide if spousal support or alimony is necessary, and once ordered these directions must be followed.  A San Diego divorce lawyer can help you in either case.

San Diego Spousal Support Attorneys

Spousal support can be a great help to individuals who might otherwise have trouble establishing or reestablishing a career after being married.  If you have devoted a large portion of your life to children or running a household, and now find yourself in danger of struggling financially in the wake of a divorce, you should take the necessary actions to protect your future by hiring a San Diego divorce lawyer from our firm.
