West Palm Beach Alimony Attorneys
Florida courts recognize several different forms of alimony. Depending on the length of the marriage, the respective incomes of the parties and many other factors, the court may consider any of the following:
- Temporary alimony
- Bridge-the-gap alimony
- Rehabilitative alimony
- Durational alimony
- Lump sum alimony
- Permanent periodic alimony
The laws affecting spousal support in Florida are changing. For marriages lasting between seven and 17 years, durational alimony creates a presumption that some form of alimony for some period of time, not longer than the length of the marriage itself, may be necessary. By analyzing your financial circumstances, and in some cases employing forensic accountants and vocational rehabilitation consultants to provide expert testimony, we can advise you of the best course of action.
The relationship between child support, alimony and distribution of property requires careful consideration. Tax law treats each of these items differently. It may be in the interests of both parties to adjust their arrangement to prevent unnecessary tax liability.
