De Krupe Law
Spousal Support Lawyer for Your Family Law Needs
Trying to figure out spousal support can be overwhelming, especially added to the stress of a separation or divorce. At De Krupe Law, we will lead you through the complexities of child support, guaranteeing the protection of your rights and interests.
What Is Spousal Support?
Spousal support, sometimes referred to as alimony or simply child support, is a financial payment made by one spouse to the other after a separation or divorce. Its primary purpose is to recognize the recipient spouse’s contribution to the marriage and help them become financially independent after the separation.
The amount and duration of spousal support are highly individual and are determined based on each case and Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines. Here at De Krupe Law, our family lawyer works closely with clients to negotiate separation agreements and establish the terms of child support orders. An approximate spousal support amount can be determined based on your circumstances during your consultation with our legal team.
Which Factors Affect Child Support?
The following factors influence the amount, duration, and overall necessity of spousal support:
- Age and health
- The children’s age
- Different income levels
- Financial needs of both spouses
- Duration of the marriage or cohabitation
- Work history and further career perspectives
- Whether the recipient spouse can be self-sufficient
The concealment of assets or income by one of the partners can really affect the other party’s eligibility for spousal support. Our team knows all the intricacies of child support matters.
Even in cases that involve concealed income and assets, our team works diligently to uncover them, so that your child support arrangement is fair and legally sound.
