Spousal Support
This is generally a very contentious issue and some of the usual reactions are:
Payors
- Why should I pay spousal support?
- Okay, so I have to pay spousal support but why so much?
- Why do I have to pay spousal support indefinitely?
- I'll just quit my job so I don't have to pay spousal support.
- If I pay spousal support and child support, I only have so much each month to live on. I just can't do it.
Recipients
- I don't want any spousal support.
- It's just not enough, I need more money to get by.
- Why shouldn't he pay spousal support? After all, he's the one who left the marriage?
This issue is confusing. Pellar Family Law can help you with the answers.
Spousal support applies to common law relationships also.
