Alimony Attorneys Serving Brevard County, Florida

Alimony, also known as spousal support, is awarded by the Florida courts to help a financially disadvantaged spouse after a divorce. However, to receive this financial assistance, you must build an evidence-based case. That is why you need an experienced Brevard County alimony lawyer.

Goldman, Monaghan, Thakkar & Bettin, P.A., has been handling divorce cases in Brevard County, Florida, since 1984. With over 180 years of combined legal experience, we provide the Gold Standard in Brevard County legal counsel. Our trusted spousal support lawyer in Florida provides personalized attention and effective legal strategies to protect your interests.

What Types Of Alimony Are Available?

We understand that alimony is not a one-size-fits-all issue in Florida. For this reason, we can help fight for any of these spousal supports:

  • Bridge-the-gap alimony: It can help cover immediate financial obligations to help you transition to single life.
  • Rehabilitative alimony: It can help you get education, job training or certifications to become financially self-sufficient.
  • Durational alimony: It can help provide financial assistance depending on the duration of the marriage.
  • Temporary: It helps maintain financial stability when a divorce is pending.

Our experienced alimony attorney in Brevard County can help analyze your financial situation and advocate for reasonable support terms.

Key Factors That Florida Courts Consider When Determining Alimony

Many clients ask us, “How is alimony calculated in Florida courts?” The answer depends on multiple factors, including:

  • Length of marriage
  • Standard of living to maintain reasonably comparable lifestyles
  • Each spouse’s income and assets
  • Contributions to the marriage
  • Age and health of the spouse

Our divorce attorneys can help build persuasive arguments supported by financial documentation and your future needs.

Can Alimony Be Modified Or Terminated?

Yes, Florida alimony law allows for the modification or termination of spousal support for various reasons, including:

  • Substantial change in circumstances, such as severe illness
  • Cohabitation, especially a supportive relationship
  • Remarriage of the recipient
  • Good faith retirement of the paying spouse
  • Increased recipient’s income

Our experienced Brevard County alimony lawyer helps prepare supporting evidence and advocate aggressively for fair modifications.
