Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona

Re: alimony

In Arizona, spousal maintenance is calculated based on several factors, one of which is the length of the marriage. The court also has to look to whether the receiving spouse "needs" the support, and to whether the paying spouse has the ability to meet their own needs while still assisting the receiving spouse. This is a very grey area of law, and it would be best for you to speak to an attorney for additional information.
