Is Alimony Modifiable?


Well, there are, in certain cases, alimony can be modifiable. In the state of Florida, unless an agreement says alimony is non-modifiable, any alimony awarded by the court would be modifiable based upon a showing of a substantial change of circumstances. That change of circumstances can be a variety of things.

It can be a party’s income has increased or decreased, a party’s need has increased or decreased. Maybe the receiving party is in a supportive relationship, meaning that they are living with someone else who pays their bills. And as a result of this new relationship, their need to receive alimony has decreased.

So there are a lot of factors that go into modifications. And I strongly recommend that anyone interested in exploring a potential modification of alimony, speak with an experienced family law attorney.
