Board Certified Family Law Specialist Matt Arnold answers the question: “When do you get alimony?”
When couples in North Carolina seek to end their marriages, they determine how to distribute their assets and debts in an equitable manner. In some cases, alimony is necessary for one or the other spouse. Alimony is also called spousal support. Alimony is money that is paid from one spouse to the other as decided during the divorce process. It may be a permanent order that is put into place by a judge in family court. An experienced divorce attorney will review the details of your case and help you get spousal support if it is warranted.
