There was a time when spousal support, or alimony, was a common occurrence in a divorce settlement. However, it has become less popular in recent years with only one in every six divorcing couples even considering it as an option. In cases where it is relevant, spousal support plays a very crucial role in the divorce settlement. Support can be a very sensitive topic between divorcing couples and it is important to have the services of an attorney with valuable insight in the practice of family law if you or your spouse plans to pursue it.
