New York City spousal support lawyer Ryan Besinque (https://www.besinquelaw.com/new-york-spousal-support-lawyer/) releases a new article that explains the difference between alimony and spousal support. According to the lawyer, divorce is not just about ending emotionally; it also ends financially. Divorce is a difficult time for couples to make financial decisions.
"One of the most disputed financial decisions at this time is that of spousal support, or when one spouse is ordered to become the payor and financially support the other, either temporarily or permanently. Divorce is a series of important decisions that may affect your financial and emotional well-being," the New York City spousal support lawyer says.
The lawyer explains that a married couple needs to support one another. One spouse may be in an extremely difficult financial situation if they go through a divorce. Spousal support (also known as alimony) is financial aid that one spouse gives to the other. It may be temporary or permanent depending on marital status.
Attorney Ryan Besinque also discusses the use of alimony. These terms are often ordered by judges and refer to one spouse paying monetary support for another spouse for a specified period. New York courts refer to "spousal maintenance", and "spousal aid" as "spousal maintenance".
Attorney Besinque clarifies that divorcing lawyers may use the terms "spousal maintenance” and "spousal support" interchangeably. While technically they are two different terms, the financial support one spouse receives in divorce proceedings is provided by both. This support can be provided before or after divorce. The duration of support is usually defined. There are some exceptions to the rule.
According to the divorce lawyer, although historically, alimony was awarded to the spouse during divorce proceedings, today society is less gender-biased. Today, spousal support is awarded by courts based on financial factors.
Lastly, attorney Besinque emphasizes the importance of having an experienced alimony attorney. Having a skilled alimony attorney may be able to help the client understand their rights and responsibilities in a divorce. A lawyer may also be able to help the client receive a favorable outcome.
