Legal Question in Family Law in Minnesota

We settled before going before a judge on a 50/50 split of all assets and I agreed to permanent spousal maintenance at age 57. Does permanent spousal maintenance mean paying into and thru retirement when we both ended up with equal assets? I feel I would have to pay from my portion of divided assets.

Permanent spousal maintenance may be modified. I urge you to confer with the attorney who assisted you in your divorce as she should know the details as well as anyone. It seems odd that you would not have discussed the matter thoroughly with the attorney representing you prior to you agreeing to a provision.
