Our Fort Lauderdale family law firm represents clients throughout Broward County in all aspects of alimony negotiations, mediation, and litigation. We work to protect your financial future by carefully analyzing income, assets, and expenses, and by presenting strong evidence to the court regarding need and ability to pay. Spousal support, also known as alimony, is often one of the most stressful and confusing parts of a divorce in Broward County. Florida law does not guarantee alimony in every case; instead, judges look at one spouse’s need for support and the other spouse’s ability to pay. Factors such as the length of the marriage, each spouse’s income and earning potential, age, health, and standard of living during the marriage all play a role. Because the court has significant discretion, having a knowledgeable Fort Lauderdale alimony attorney evaluate your situation early can be critical.
In Broward County divorce cases, there are several types of alimony that may be awarded, including temporary, bridge-the-gap, rehabilitative, durational, and sometimes lump-sum support. Each type of spousal support serves a different purpose, from helping a spouse transition to single life to providing longer-term assistance after a long-term marriage. Whether you are seeking spousal support or being asked to pay it, a tailored legal strategy can make a major difference in how much alimony is ordered and how long it lasts.
