ALABAMA Part 36

3.      What do we need to do to get alimony?


Understanding and Calculating Alimony in Alabama
Learn what is considered in an alimony (spousal support) agreement in Alabama.


Alimony is money one spouse pays to the other for support either during or after a divorce. In Alabama, alimony is sometimes called "spousal maintenance," "spousal support," or a "spousal allowance." When spouses with large differences in income separate, a lower earning spouse may be unable to continue paying for normal living expenses, in which case a court may require the higher earner—whether that's the husband or the wife—to assist the lower earner financially for at least some period of time.
