How Alimony Laws Have Changed in Recent Years


Permanent alimony was in place as of two years ago, so on a marriage of 17 years or more, you were entitled to permanent alimony. There was a push to change that because if you’re married young, say at 20 years old, at 37 years old, you could be on the hook for permanent alimony for the next 50 years.

Whether fair or not, the law got changed. There is no longer permanent alimony. What it really entails now is people understanding when they’re going into a marriage. And they decide not to work and be dependent on the other spouse. So people have to be a lot more educated going into a marriage than they used to be.

Josh and his team proved their track record. I hired him at 9am and they appeared for me by 1pm the same day. Highly contested paternity case, turned dependency nightmare. He faught hard in a short time and got the results I needed. My baby back. Josh and his associates are kind, patient, diligent and aggressive. They are human. I trusted them through the whole process. I was kept informed and they faught with passion. I’d rehire josh and his team any day. It was well worth the money spent. – Rochelle

Jason Brodie is what you want in an attorney: Ethical, classy, smart, and most of all he understands the law. He told me the truth, not what I wanted to hear, and gave me my options. He works with you to achieve your outcome. He did a masterful job for me! His firm is just as attentive, smart, and responsive, and gives you the support while you are getting battered by the despicable assaults from your ex and their counsel. It was a tough case, but he got it done ethically. It’s now over and I’m at peace. – Vincent B.

The best thing about Joshua Friedman was his compassion, knowledge and commitment. He was straight forward and told me what to expect each step of the way. He not only advised me on my initial separation, but continued to guide me until my divorce was finalized. He kept me informed with each new filing and discussed all of my options and risks. He was honest and answered each of my questions with thorough and thoughtful responses. His knowledge of the law was invaluable and I can’t thank him enough for his professionalism and dedication to my case. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer who will devote his all to his clients. – Jennifer
