SPOUSAL SUPPORT

For couples facing divorce, the amount of financial support they may be entitled to is a top concern. In Kentucky, spousal support is calculated based on several factors, including income, employment, length of marriage and other factors. To navigate within the legal guidelines, ambiguities, special circumstances, and individual concerns, people require the expertise of an experienced spousal support counsel. At Barrow & Weigel, our attorneys advise you on your options and help negotiate a fair support amount.

A spousal support award, sometimes referred to as maintenance, is made on the basis of several factors. The factors considered include, but are not limited to, the incomes of the parties, the parties’ education levels, age, health, standard of living of the parties, duration of the marriage, and any other factors that the court deems relevant.

Barrow & Weigel represents both the potential payer and payee in spousal support cases and has the experience necessary to achieve the most beneficial results for our clients.
