Beverly Hills Spousal Support Attorney

Determining who pays spousal support and how much they should pay is often a critical element of the divorce process in California. It can also be among the most complex.

If you are getting a divorce, hiring a strong attorney who specializes in these matters can play a key role in making sure spousal support arrangements are fair to everyone involved. Contact our Beverly Hills spousal support attorneys at Baghdaserians Law Group to learn how we can help you navigate these matters.

Types of Spousal Support in Beverly Hills Divorce Cases

There is no universal spousal support arrangement that a court may decide is proper when a couple gets divorced in Beverly Hills. Spousal support arrangements can be broken down into the following types:

Temporary Spousal Support

A court might order one spouse to pay temporary spousal support to another when a divorce has not yet been finalized. This temporary spousal support is meant to ensure that the spouse receiving payments is able to maintain their standard of living. These payments can also help a spouse pay for a divorce attorney.

Courts will generally account for the needs of the spouse receiving payments and the financial means of the spouse making the payments when determining exactly how much money temporary spousal support payments should consist of. The advocacy of a Beverly Hills spousal support attorney can help ensure the amount that is calculated is fair and that the payments continue to be made as ordered.

Long-Term Spousal Support

Long-term spousal support arrangements typically apply after a divorce has been finalized. Determining how much money these payments will consist of and how long they will need to be made is a more complex matter.

Essentially, a court can determine that these payments should be made in virtually any reasonable amount for as long as they may be necessary given the needs of the spouse receiving these payments. Courts will usually assess the standard of living that the spouse receiving payments enjoyed during their marriage when determining how much spousal support the other spouse should pay.

This does not mean that courts grant all requests for long-term spousal support. For example, perhaps one spouse requests spousal support, but it is determined that both parties’ financial contributions to the marriage were basically equal. In these circumstances, courts sometimes deny requests for long-term spousal support.

Additionally, spousal support arrangements can be modified for such reasons as:

  • The spouse who was ordered to make payments can no longer do so because their income has significantly dropped;
  • The spouse receiving payments has achieved a state of financial well-being that eliminates their need to continue receiving payments;
  • The spouse receiving payments remarries and now has someone else providing for their financial needs;

Whether you believe your spouse is requesting that you pay more in spousal support than is justified, you believe you are deserving of spousal support, or you wish to modify an existing spousal support arrangement, a Beverly Hills spousal support attorney can help.
