Spousal Support in Alabama Divorce
There are no hard-and-fast rules regarding alimony in Alabama. The decisions vary from county to county. It is safe to say that once you've been married for ten years, you may be entitled to at least a share of your spouse's retirement funds.
Aside from the length of marriage, other factors that come into play in determining whether you are eligible to receive (or responsible to pay) alimony include fault, disparity in lifestyle, ability of the supporting party to pay and the need for rehabilitative spousal support to help one party obtain additional education or training to get back into the workforce.
We can help you understand your rights regarding alimony. We also assist clients in modifying alimony in cases where a loss of a job or other financial difficulty makes a standing order of spousal support unworkable.
