Tampa Alimony Attorneys
Alimony involves the payment of financial support from one spouse to another. Payments can take place on a recurring periodic basis, or made in the form of a lump sum. Not all divorce cases involve alimony. The primary considerations are the financial need of the receiving party and the ability to pay of the paying party. In determining an award of alimony, the court can consider several factors, including the following:

• The standard of living established during the marriage.
• The duration of the marriage
• The age and the physical and/or emotional condition of each party.
• The financial resources of each party
• The contribution of each party to the marriage, including, services rendered in homemaking, child care, education, and career building of the other party.

There is no formula to award alimony. The amount and duration are fact specific and determined on a case by case basis. To schedule a consultation with Spinner Law Firm to discuss your alimony concerns, please call anytime (813) 991-5099.
