Bradenton Alimony Attorneys Lawyers Effectively Advocating for You with Compassion and Integrity

Before getting into some of these types, it’s important to understand what the state considers to be a short-term, moderate-term or long-term marriage. The length of your marriage will play a major role in determining how much you’ll receive, or how much you’ll pay. A short-term marriage is defined as lasting fewer than seven years. A moderate-term marriage lasts between 7-17 years, while a long-term marriage lasts 17 years or longer.

Alimony attorneys in Bradenton FL should cover the following kinds of alimony when explaining how they may be able to help. Here’s a brief look at each.

Temporary – This is usually awarded while the divorce is ongoing. Once proceedings end, it will typically be replaced by another type.
Bridge-the-gap – Also known as “transitional” alimony, it provides support to a spouse to help them move from being married to being single.
Rehabilitative – This can provide money for a spouse who needs to take classes, or participate in vocational programs to learn the skills needed to be able to support themselves.
Durational – Many clients of alimony lawyers in Bradenton FL will receive this form of support. It’s usually awarded to spouses who were in short- or moderate-term marriages.
Permanent – As the name implies, this will last as long as the receiving spouse doesn’t remarry. It usually applies to moderate- or long-term marriages.
