Fort Lauderdale Increasing Alimony Lawyers

After the dissolution of a marriage, one of the ex-spouses may be granted alimony, which is a payment that he or she regularly receives from the other ex-spouse. Alimony is usually determined based on an individual’s current financial condition and circumstances.

When circumstances change and individuals need more support, they may need to petition for a alimony increase.  If your post-divorce circumstances have changed and you need more support, contact the Fort Lauderdale increasing alimony lawyers of Eric N. Klein & Associates, P.A., at 954-580-8080.

How to Increase Alimony

It is important to note that increasing alimony is not an easy task.  Individuals must establish that a substantial change in circumstances has occurred and that their only option for maintaining their needs consistent with the marital standard of living is an alimony increase.

Individuals receiving alimony cannot request an increase in alimony simply because they want more money.  They must have a legitimate reason for requesting an increase.  Reasons for increasing alimony may include:

• Increases in necessary living expenses
• Decreases in the recipient’s income
• Inability to earn income because of illness or disability occurring after original order
• Increase in paying spouse’s income

It is often difficult to prove that one of these changes in circumstances exists, so it is important for individuals seeking an increase in alimony payments to employ the help of an experienced Fort Lauderdale increasing alimony lawyer.
