Definition

A Spousal Support Claim is a legal request made by one spouse to receive financial assistance from the other spouse following a divorce or separation. This claim is typically based on factors such as income disparity, the length of the marriage, and each spouse's financial needs and contributions during the marriage. Spousal support, also known as alimony, is designed to provide financial support to the lower-earning spouse to help them maintain their standard of living or become financially independent.
