How Alimony works in Utah

Divorce alone can take a tremendous toll on you. You and your former spouse now have completely different lives. Now that you have to pay alimony, there's even more pressure and stress on you. There are several types of alimony you may have to pay. The first being temporary alimony. This is typically awarded in the early stages until everything in the divorce is finalized. The second being lump sum alimony. This means alimony wouldn't have to be paid monthly but all at once. The third type is permanent alimony. This is typical for longer marriages. The last type of alimony is rehabilitative alimony. This is typically given when a spouse has sacrificed their professional career or education. Sometimes alimony is quoted as a price that is truly unfair to you. Or you're not alloted as much alimony as you need. Salt Lake City alimony attorney Christopher M.
