When does spousal support time window start if there is a huge difference in the time of separation and case filing?
answered on Sep 23, 2022
The court generally does take this situation into consideration. If the spouse has supported themselves all this time, what is the need for support now? It is one factor that the court considers.
answered on Sep 23, 2022
Both are responsible for sharing in the debts. However, you can ask the court to make one side pay for it as part of a support order or to make sure that you have a place to stay.
