Aggressive Calabasas, CA Spousal Support Attorneys

We Help Clients In Calabasas Understand Their Options & Protect Their Rights When It Comes To Paying Or Receiving Alimony!

‍
Following a divorce or a legal separation in Calabasas, a court may order the higher-earning spouse to pay the lower-earning spouse a specific amount of money on a regular basis. This is known commonly as “spousal support”, or “alimony”. It compares to child support, but the laws and procedures surrounding spousal support differ greatly. For one thing, courts have much broader discretion when deciding whether or not to award alimony and if so, how much and for how long, unlike child support, which is strictly specified. It is also harder to enforce alimony than it is child support. Because of these nuances, having the right attorney on your side can make a significant impact on the amount of spousal support that you either receive or are required to pay. If you are seeking support, you have to be able to position your situation correctly in front of a judge and make a persuasive argument for the amount you deserve; if you are being asked to pay support, you have to do the same thing in order to avoid paying more than you need to. Divorce can get messy, especially when there are sizable assets involved, and how alimony is awarded can impact your financial circumstances for years to come. You need a tenacious lawyer who will fight to protect your rights!

Count On Our Close Attention To Detail When You Need To Limit Or Maximize Spousal Support!

‍
The purpose of spousal support is to minimize what can sometimes be an unfair economic effect of divorce – the lower-income or no-income spouse being financially devastated when they lose the dual income that marriage provided. There are many types of spousal support awarded (rehabilitative alimony, durational alimony, lump sum alimony, etc.) and there are many factors the court may consider when awarding alimony (length of the marriage, party’s ability to pay support, party’s need for support, standard of living during the marriage, employment of both parties, the care of the children, and more). The amount of spousal support awarded will depend on the details of your case; our detail-oriented lawyers make sure that nothing slips through the cracks and that the court hears your side of the story. The lawyers at Southern California Attorneys, A.P.C. have over 60 years of combined legal experience guiding clients through divorce, custody, modification, and spousal support situations. You can trust that we have your best interests at heart! While we always seek collaborative solutions because they are easier on families, we know that especially in spousal support disputes, conflict is common, and we are more than capable of defending your rights. Even if negotiations cannot be amicable, we do our best to minimize drama and give you peace of mind. We can help you understand your options for pursuing or avoiding spousal support!
