Ponte Vedra Beach Area Alimony Attorney
Alimony Issues in Atlantic Beach or Jacksonville Beach?
When a divorce is in the future, alimony may be a matter of concern. Are you eligible for alimony? Will you have to pay alimony? How much can you expect? These questions are important and it is crucial that you get the answers you need from a Ponte Vedra Beach area alimony lawyer. At the Law Offices of Wesley H. Owens, we are very familiar with all aspects of alimony and how Florida law determines who and how much should be paid. The court will determine how much alimony is paid based upon certain factors including the following:
- The duration of the marriage
- The financial condition of each party
- The employment and income of each party
- The contributions of each spouse during the marriage (both financial and non-financial)
- The financial obligations such as debts, payments etc. incurred during the marriage
- The length of time that it may take to train or make employable an unemployed spouse
- The financial assets of each party
- The financial need of each party
- The level of standard of living that was enjoyed during the marriage
Alimony can be ordered by the court to either spouse based on these or other factors. When an individual has enjoyed a certain standard of living during a marriage, and now will face a lowered standard of living and lifestyle, the court may consider it is fair to award alimony for a specific length of time, or permanently. When the parties are in the middle of a divorce, temporary alimony may be awarded that could then become permanent.
