Manhattan Spousal Support Lawyer Ryan Besinque Explains Spousal Maintenance and Alimony
Jun 10, 2022
June 10, 2022 - /PressAdvantage/ - Manhattan spousal support lawyer Ryan Besinque releases a new article (https://www.besinquelaw.com/new-york-spousal-support-lawyer/) explaining the difference between alimony and spousal support. The lawyer mentions that divorce is not just about ending a marriage emotionally but also 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 wellbeing," says the Manhattan spousal support lawyer.
The lawyer explains that couples should be financially supportive of each other. One spouse may be in a difficult financial situation if they go through a divorce. Spousal support (also known as alimony) is financial assistance provided by one spouse to the other. It can be temporary or permanent depending on marital circumstances.
Attorney Ryan Besinque discusses the common use of alimony. These terms are often ordered by a judge and refer to one spouse providing financial support for the other spouse for an agreed period. New York courts use terms such as "spousal maintenance", and "spousal aid".
In the article, attorney Besinque explains how divorce lawyers can use "spousal maintenance” and "spousal support" interchangeably. While technically they are two different terms, both terms can be used in divorce proceedings to provide financial support for one spouse. This support can be provided before or after divorce. The support period is usually defined. There are exceptions to the rule.
According to the divorce lawyer, although historically, alimony was awarded to the wife in divorce proceedings, society is less gender-biased. Today, spousal support is awarded by courts based on financial and other 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.
