Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey
Revisiting alimony and child support
My husband's alimony and child support payments total $70,000 per year. The amounts he is required to pay were based on his making $276,000 and his ex-wife making $40,000. Over the past three years his salary averages $180,000 and her's $80,000 (per year). Would it be to our benefit to revisit alimony and child support with our lawyer to possibly get it lowered? Thank you!

Re: Revisiting alimony and child support
Good God, yes!! if there is any material change in the income or expenses of your husband or his ex-wife, then you should look into it.
With this much money involved, make sure you have a smart, experienced divorce attorney.
Re: Revisiting alimony and child support
Assuming that your husband's reduction in income is not the result of some voluntary or elective action on his part a reduction in his alimony seems likely.
