    Understanding Alimony

    Often times in a case of divorce or legal separation, one spouse may be required to pay the other alimony, or spousal support. Alimony is not to be confused with child support, which is a whole separate issue. Alimony is specifically financial support from one spouse to another.

    Historically speaking, alimony came about during a time when divorce was rare, and separation was more common. Because the couple was still legally married, it was viewed that it was still the husband's obligation to continue to financially support his wife. Hence, the laws of alimony were born.
