Alimony

Alimony is one of the most hotly contested issues in a divorce. Alimony is the financial support a dependent spouse needs after a separation or divorce. Alimony is the most subjective issue confronted by the parties, because judges have so much discretion to set alimony. Heidi Risser has helped many clients navigate the alimony process to find a solution that meets the needs of the dependent spouse in a way that is reasonable for the supporting spouse.
