FAQ
Specifically in California, disqualification might result from several key factors. One such factor is a significant change in the financial status of the recipient spouse, such as acquiring a new job or receiving an inheritance, which could render them financially independent and no longer in need of support.
California doesn't use a "calculator" for determining the amount of long-term spousal support. Instead, judges must decide how much to award after they've considered all of the following circumstances: each spouse's needs, based on the standard of living they had during the marriage.
The Lenght of a Marriage The duration of support payments typically depends on the length of the marriage. The longer the marriage, the better your chances of getting spousal support.
California Alimony California determines alimony based on the recipient's “marital standard of living,” which aims to allow the spouse to continue living in a similar manner as during the marriage.
How is the Amount of Alimony Determined? Supporting Spouse's Ability to Pay. The Best Interest of Children. The Lenght of a Marriage. The Ability to Earn. Standard of Living the Spouses Maintained During the Marriage. Educational or Emotional Support.
Generally, the courts in California award spousal support based on the length of the marriage. In California, spousal support typically lasts half the length of the marriage. If the couple was married for six years, for example, a judge would make a spousal support obligation last for three years.
