Alimony
When a dependent spouse is divorced, he or she loses the income stream on which they have come to depend. Alimony is designed to support dependent spouses as they transition to independence and can be paid by male or female ex-spouses. Though the decision to pay alimony can be a civil one, all too often legal issues arise around the amount, timely payment, and making sure the ex-spouse receives all of the assets they deserve.
The right family law attorney can help negotiate alimony as part of a civil divorce settlement and deal with any arguments over assets, timely payment, or enforcement that arise. In fact, a qualified divorce attorney is your best asset when it comes to obtaining the full amount of compensation you deserve and enforcing that agreement once your divorce is finalized. At Graff & Associates, LLC, we understand the
emotional and financial stress that can surround a divorce. We have a long track record of success when it comes to divorce negotiations and alimony, from obtaining the best agreement possible to enforcing it over the long-term.

Alimony
Alimony is an obligation established by law that is based on the premise that both spouses have an absolute obligation to support each other during the marriage unless they are legally separated. In some instances, the obligation to support may continue after separation.
