Alimony is the term commonly used to refer to maintenance and spousal support provided by one spouse or former spouse to the other during a separation or after a divorce. Although traditionally awarded primarily to stay-at-home wives, alimony is now awarded to either spouse if they have a financial need, and the other spouse has the ability to pay.
Whether alimony is proper or is likely to be awarded by the court in your case is largely a factual question. Some of the factors that the judge will consider include: the length of the marriage; the age of each spouse; the health of each spouse; the ability of each spouse to be self-supporting, including a consideration of responsibilities to the parties’ minor children, if any; the income of the primary wage-earner; and the standard of living the parties enjoyed during the marriage.
