Durational Alimony Attorney Also Serving Clearwater

If you and a spouse were married for less than seventeen years and are currently in the throes of a divorce, it is imperative that you consider the option of durational alimony. While similar to permanent alimony, durational alimony is believe to be better suiting to shorter marriages. A recent concept under Florida law, this type of alimony is awarded by determining several factors, including the duration of the marriage, the standard of living within the marriage, the physical condition, financial resources and earning capacity of each party, along with the contributions made during the marriage.

Usually, durational alimony is awarded to the spouse that is the higher money earner, and like permanent alimony, can be tax deductible for the paying party. Unlike permanent alimony, however, this type of alimony is only paid for a certain amount of time which cannot exceed the length of the marriage. As this is a new concept under Florida law, it is important that you do not hesitate to discuss this with a Tampa durational alimony attorney as quickly as possible.
