How Spousal Maintenance Is Determined
In Wisconsin, alimony or spousal support is determined at the state level based on several factors:
- Income of both spouses: Courts evaluate earning capacity, current income and potential for future earnings.
- Duration of the marriage: Longer marriages usually result in longer or higher spousal maintenance.
- Financial needs and contributions: Both monetary and non-monetary contributions during the marriage are considered.
- Standard of living: The goal is to help maintain a reasonable standard of living for the lower-earning spouse.
Our attorneys in New Berlin, Wisconsin, help ensure each factor is carefully reviewed to achieve the best possible outcome for our clients.
Modifying Spousal Support After Divorce
