California Spousal Support
At Modern Family Law our goal is to find the best solution for you and your family. Our family law attorneys take their time to listen to your case and handle it as effectively as possible. We understand that child custody cases can be scary, stressful, and devastating. With that in mind, our attorneys approach each case with empathy and integrity to help guide our clients through these difficult times.
Spousal support is often called either maintenance or alimony. Spousal support is money that’s owed from one spouse to the other, above and beyond a property division. It may be temporary, or it may be permanent. It’s usually ordered in a fixed amount, for a fixed period of time. For example, a judge could order $1,000 per month for the next 5 years.
Failure to pay support payments can result in stiff penalties. Those penalties may include jail time or loss of your driver’s license, depending on the amount owed and reason for a failure to pay. It’s better to make arrangements than get a court involved.
Our attorneys are ready to listen to the specifics of your case and to help you understand your best course of action. Call us today or schedule a free consultation with one of our experienced family law attorneys.
