Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Re: Proof of Supportive Relationship

There are several factors that the Court considers when determining whether the recipient of alimony is in a �Supportive Relationship� entitling the payor of the alimony to a reduction or termination of alimony payments. The age of the relationship is one factor, though four months may not be seen as being significantly lengthy. What you need to look for is the pooling of assets (Joint Accounts), the sharing of property (cars or property titled in joint name), joint business endeavors, supporting each other�s children, and representing themselves as a married couple. If you can gather evidence or indication of those factors, you may be able to justify an adjustment or termination of alimony. An attorney may be able to assist in evaluating any evidence you currently have, or conducting asset searches to identify any assets they hold jointly.
