Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona
My ex-husband stop paying me alimony before the 6 year agreement was up. He owes me 1 1/2 years of alimony which adds up to about sixty-eight thousand dollars. I caould not afford to hire an attorney to go after him. My alimony time was up on October 19, 2009 He sold is business before the alimony date was over.. Since it is past the date of my Alimony cut off date can I still go after him for alimony due to me three months after the date? I live in Arizona. It hurt me financially when he stopped paying we were married 25 years.
Thank You Ida

You absolutely can still pursue. I would encourage you to act quickly.
We can certainly help you consider and then pursue your options.
We have three attorneys. We charge from $220 per hour to $250 per hour. Our retainers can run as low as $500 for demand letters/phone calls, $1200 plus costs for uncontested matters, or from $2,000 to $4,000 for most contested matters.
We also can structure assistance to help you represent yourself if your prefer.
Please remember that a retainer is just a prepayment of time, and is not an estimate as to the total costs of the matter. If I finish within the retainer, than I refund any unearned amounts.
One of our attorneys can explain the issues and procedures better in person. As you can imagine, there is too much to cover via email. We offer free 1/2 hour consultations, in which we can discuss your matter in detail.
Please call us directly to discuss the specifics of your matter, or contact my assistant Gloria or my paralegal Jennifer to schedule your free 1/2 hour consultation
