Albany Spousal Support Lawyer
When a couple separates or divorces, one spouse may be eligible to receive financial support from the other in the form of spousal support or spousal maintenance (previously referred to as alimony).
The two parties can reach a mutual agreement or spousal maintenance may be an order of the court. Ideally, the purpose of spousal support is to allow a lower income spouse to become self-sustaining after the termination of the marriage.
