Re: Spousal Maintenance

Hello. Generally the amount for spousal main-

tenance is set via the Court's own discretion. A

form affidavit, pursuant to the rules of the Illinois Supreme Court, requires each party to

lists income, expenses and liabilities. This

helps the Court to determine the amount of spousal maintenance. However, this is a very

complicated topic and the length of the marriage

is definitely a factor. I hope my answer has

been helpful. I will be happy to answer any

additional questions that you might have.
