NEW JERSEY ALIMONEY
NJ Child Alimony and Family Law Attorneys
Often called spousal support or maintenance, alimony is the amount of money paid by one spouse to the other during the course of the divorce litigation and/or after the divorce. The lawyers at the New Jersey law office of Weinberger Law Group, LLC are knowledgeable about the specific statutory law governing alimony payments as well as the extensive case law dealing with support and other family law related matters.
How is Alimony Calculated?
An alimony calculation is not based on a fixed formula. Various statutory factors are taken into consideration before a final figure is determined including length of the marriage, age of the parties, need and ability to pay, health of the parties, income of the parties, capacity to earn, history of earnings, education, child caretaking responsibilities and so forth. An alimony order is intended to allow both spouses to maintain, as closely as possible, the lifestyle comparable to that which they enjoyed during the marriage.
Our NJ alimony and family law attorneys thoroughly review both your marital lifestyle and the factors contained in the alimony statute so that we can fully educate you about your various options, as well as the possible outcomes. Our divorce and family law attorneys vigorously advocate for your best interests while at the same time explaining to you what results can be reasonably be expected.
