Transform Your Future with Expert Spousal Support Guidance

Types of Spousal Support

There are several types of spousal support, each tailored to different circumstances:

• Temporary Support: This type is awarded during the divorce process to help the lower-earning spouse manage living expenses until the divorce is finalized.
• Rehabilitative Support: Designed to support a spouse while they gain education or training to become self-sufficient.
• Permanent Support: Typically awarded in long-term marriages where one spouse lacks the ability to become self-supporting due to age or health issues.
• Lump-Sum Support: A one-time payment that replaces ongoing support payments, often used to simplify the settlement process.
