Southern California Spousal Support Attorneys

Spousal support, commonly known as alimony, is meant to be a means of financial support for the non-earning or lesser earning spouse. The timeline for spousal support is based upon the length of the marriage, need, ability to pay, and other pertinent factors.

If spousal support or child support arrearages are owed, a lawyer at our firm can assist you in getting the funds your family is owed. Even in a bankruptcy, support obligations may not be discharged. Depending on your situation, you may also be entitled to reimbursement of your attorney’s fees.

Child support typically lasts until the child is 18 or graduates from high school (whichever comes later). The guidelines calculate the amount of child support based in large part on the gross monthly income of the parties and the time-sharing plan. This means that if parenting time is split equally and the parties earnings are comparable, child support may not necessarily be awarded. It is in your best interest to speak with an experienced attorney who can accurately evaluate your situation and give you honest answers.
