Spousal maintenance, sometimes referred to as alimony or spousal support, is a very complex area of the law. In Minnesota, there is no fixed formula for determining the amount or duration of spousal maintenance. The court will look at a number of different factors including, the duration of the marriage, the financial need of the requesting spouse, and the other spouse’s ability to pay, as well as a number of other factors.

At Robinson | Duffy, PLLC, our Minneapolis alimony attorneys strive to find spousal maintenance solutions that are fair and in your best interests. We will carefully analyze your situation to help you determine whether or not spousal maintenance is appropriate.

Our attorneys will help answer your spousal maintenance questions:

  • How long will spousal maintenance last?
  • What happens to my spousal maintenance if I remarry?
  • What happens to spousal maintenance if I move in with my significant other?
  • What’s the difference between spousal maintenance and child support?
  • Do I pay taxes on my spousal maintenance?
  • What happens to my spousal maintenance obligation when I retire?

Spousal maintenance may or may not be part of your divorce. If it is, we strongly suggest you hire an attorney to help navigate you.
