When most people hear the word “Alimony,” they usually think of child support, but Alimony is actually something different. Alimony is the legal obligation to provide financial support to their spouse following the entry of a decree in divorce. Prior to the entry of a decree in divorce it is called Alimony Pendente Lite or Spousal Support. In many cases, you and your spouse can come to an agreement as to the amount and length of time Alimony will be paid. If you can’t, a court will set the terms for you, and the court must consider 17 factors in determining the length and the amount at a hearing. When that happens, you want a strong, experienced lawyer on your side. If you’re facing a hearing which includes a claim for Alimony or a claim for Spousal Support or Alimony Pendente Lite, call the office of Karen L. Ferri today at (724) 733-4666.
