Spousal Support
Today, most types of spousal support are not permanent, but temporary and rehabilitative in nature. In fact, it is no longer uncommon for spousal support to not be ordered as part of a divorce settlement. Generally speaking, the longer the marriage, the more likely it is that some type of post-divorce support will be ordered. How much and for how long will depend on a number of factors.
Child Support
In California, child support is calculated by a formula that takes into account the number of children, their ages, the relative incomes and earning capacities of both parents, and many other factors. Generally speaking, deviations from the California child support guideline amount are difficult to arrange, particularly without the assistance of an experienced attorney.
Our firm also represents people who — because life and personal needs sometimes change — need to get spousal and child support orders modified after divorce.
