How does California handle spousal support decisions?
In California, spousal support often depends on factors including the standard of living during the marriage, length of marriage, each spouse’s earning capacity, and contributions to the other's career or education. Judges may also review concerns such as domestic violence and its effect on earning power. Temporary spousal support may be granted while divorce proceedings are pending, though long-term support decisions require a broader review. Our San Diego family law attorneys can help you understand these issues and prepare for discussions about spousal support.
