Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania
spousal support
I have been ordered to pay spousal support amount
of $184 per wk. My net monthly salary is $3000
and hers is $1000. Children ages are 22 and 26.
I feel this is excessive due to the amount of my
monthly bills w/o support and food is $2400.
Also, will support decrease after divorce is
final. I also must pay her co-pay on medical.
She also filed seperate on taxes which left me
with tax bills of $5200. Am I getting a fair
decision and should I fight this if not?

Re: spousal support
Generally, spousal support ends when a divorce decree is entered. However, APL and/or alimony could continue afterwards. Before being able to determine whether your support order is correct, there is some additional information that is needed. If you would like to contact me, I would be happy to discuss this with you further.
