Navigating the Legal and Financial Factors That Impact Spousal Support
Spousal maintenance is commonly known as “alimony.” In Colorado, spousal maintenance can be ordered when one spouse needs support and the other spouse has the ability to pay support. What this commonly comes down to is the question of whether the spouse needing support is unable to meet their reasonable needs on their income alone.
It’s important that you have an attorney who understands the ins and outs of spousal maintenance and can fight to get you the support you deserve. Our firm has the expertise and strategy to make sure the correct earnings and adjustments are considered to get the most fair support order for you.
Whether seeking maintenance or challenging an unfair request, we work to ensure spousal support orders are accurate, balanced, and legally sound.
In Colorado, spousal maintenance is guided by statutory formulas that provide a starting point for determining support. While these formulas create consistency, they are not the final answer in every case.
The outcome depends heavily on how income and financial information are defined, calculated, and presented. Seemingly small differences in how earnings are characterized, along with applicable exceptions and adjustments, can significantly impact the amount of support ordered. Understanding these nuances is critical to ensuring a fair and accurate result.

Spousal support or maintenance can be ordered to continue for years, which makes it exceedingly important to ensure you are receiving or paying what you deserve. Overpayment of spousal support can cost thousands, if not tens of thousands of dollars over the course of your payment period. Likewise, underpayment of spousal support can result in significant financial hardship for the recipient spouse.
