Alimony Factors in Florida

If one spouse makes significantly more than the other spouse, then they may be required to make support payments on a monthly basis in order to supplement the other spouse's income. A party could be required to make payments for an indefinite or specified period of time, depending on:

• the mental and physical health of both parties
• the duration of the marriage
• other various issues 

These payments are designed to provide for the lesser income spouse and help them get back on their feet. It is important that you understand this process and seek legal assistance when pursuing a favorable outcome.
