Spousal Support (Alimony)
Though spousal support is not awarded in every case, it may be warranted in certain cases. Also called alimony, spousal support is an amount of money that is to be paid by one spouse to another and can be ordered on a temporary basis during the proceeding, for a short term following the decree, or permanently. A range of factors are considered when determining spousal support including; the financial resources of the spouse seeking support; the time necessary for the seeking spouse to acquire education or training to find employment; the age and health of the seeking spouse; the length of the marriage; the standard of living established during the marriage; and the ability of the paying spouse to meet personal needs while paying support.
Child Custody and Support
Though not every divorce involves children, we strive to help parents that are divorcing deal with child support and child custody as efficiently as possible. We are highly knowledgeable of the Kentucky laws that govern these types of issues and can ensure your rights, and the best interests of your children, are protected.
Property Division and Division of Assets
Besides spousal support, child support and child custody, divorcing couples argue most about how property and assets are going to be divided. Since Kentucky is an equitable division state, property and assets are divided equally and fairly, but not necessarily 50-50. We can assist you in understanding what is subject to division, such as:
- Homes
- Real property
- Vacation property
- Cars
- Recreational vehicles
- Pensions
- Retirement accounts
- 401(k)s
Our firm can also secure Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDROs) when necessary, employ forensic accountants to locate hidden assets and enlist the assistance of experts when obtaining a property or business valuation. All of these aspects together ensure that all property and assets are being considered to protect your non-marital property and your interest in all marital property.
