Generally, alimony can be modified if there has been a substantial change in circumstances since the issue was last addressed by the Court. Alimony can also be terminated if the party receiving it is in a supportative relationship as defined by the applicable statute.

If you opt to proceed without the assistance of counsel, be aware that you will not be entitled to a �do over� if things go badly.

The above information is provided without any consideration/payment having been received, and without full knowledge of all of the facts.

An internet inquiry is no substitution for an in-office consultation with an attorney.
