Lake Oswego, Oregon Spousal Support Lawyer
In many marriages, there is a gap between the incomes of the two spouses. One spouse may have taken the role of income earner, while the other may have devoted his or her time to raising children, maintaining the home, and other duties. When divorce occurs, the latter spouse may be left in a difficult position. Spousal support, also known as alimony, is intended to provide financial relief to that spouse. At the Hohbach Law Firm, we are here to see that the amount of spousal support is accurate.

Spousal support is a constantly-evolving element of divorce. No solid guidelines or formulas exist to determine the right amount. If you ask five judges how spousal support is calculated, you are likely to receive five different answers. We will stand by your side to see that all of the important factors are taken into account so that you receive the amount of permanent or temporary spousal support that is fair.
Among the pieces considered in spousal support decisions are: the length of the marriage, whether or not each spouse was in the workforce and to what extent, the number of children, and the support provided or received during the marriage. We will work to see that all information looked at is accurate and accounted for.
