Divorce is the dissolution of a marriage and not the end of
your obligation to your former spouse.
In most divorce cases one partner is more financially viable than the
other. Because of this the less well-off
partner is entitled to equitable financial compensation to help them cope
financially with their new post-divorce lifestyle.
Spousal support is established to recognize one individual’s
support given during the union even though it was not an equal sharing of
expenses. Alimony, by the way is
available ONLY to those that have been legally married. You may anticipate that the court will award
financial assistance based on factors such as the duration of the marriage,
each person's earning capacity, contribution to household or career, and
physical health of the recipient.
How does spousal support effect you in the state of
Washington? Hear the facts from someone
who has represented divorcees in the Seattle/Bellevue/Everett area for nearly

Clark. Do not hesitate another minute
