Quality Legal Representation for Payors and Recipients in Chicago

in any divorce, the issue of spousal maintenance, commonly known as alimony, is crucial. Whether the court grants you an award or obliges you to pay, the amount of maintenance ordered has a significant impact on your financial future. At Arami Law, we have more than a decade of experience negotiating and litigating spousal support issues. We provide quality representation that includes an in-depth analysis of your finances so the court has accurate information on which to base its decision..

Permanent maintenance — Courts may award lifetime support for lengthy marriages if it would be unreasonable to expect the recipient party to achieve a standard of living that compares favorably to that enjoyed during the union.s
Temporary maintenance — Courts usually award support for a dependent spouse during the divorce process.
Rehabilitative maintenance — Courts understand that a dependent spouse may not become self-supporting immediately and often grant maintenance for a specific interim period.
Reviewable maintenance — The ability to return to the job market is often unpredictable, so the court may set an initial maintenance schedule and a future date to determine if support should be modified, extended, or terminated.
