Spousal Support
One of the more stressful parts of divorce is splitting your mutual finances. It can feel even more daunting when one spouse has more financial resources to get the outcome they want during or after the divorce.
Don’t be discouraged if your spouse earns more money than you do – you may be entitled to receive financial assistance from them.
There are three kinds of spousal support in Pennsylvania: temporary spousal support during the divorce but before it is finalized; Alimony Pendente Lite, which helps the financially dependent spouse afford divorce litigation; and alimony, which is payment made to the dependent spouse after the divorce.
Contact us today to find out your options for financial assistance during or after the divorce process. Whether you are looking for spousal support or Alimony Pendente Lite during your divorce proceedings or alimony after your divorce, we can help you achieve more financial security and tip the scales more in your favor.
