Spousal support is designed to allow spouses to approximately maintain the quality of life that they enjoyed during the marriage. In divorces where one spouse is an extraordinarily high income earner and the other spouse's financial contribution is not comparable, spousal support can be a contentious issue. For professional athletes, this may be especially true.
If you are a professional athlete and are facing the uncertainty of divorce, it is essential that you secure the representation of an attorney who is skilled in appropriately establishing or disputing spousal support that is based on substantial income that may fluctuate from year to year.
At Stolar & Associates, we understand how important it is for our clients to have their interests aggressively protected when spousal support is being determined. We have decades of experience that allow us to create strategies that can help ensure that your goals for the divorce are effectively pursued. We know how personal the issue of spousal support can be and we always keep our clients' goals in mind.
Spousal Support for Professional Athletes
In addition to ensuring that spousal support levels are set appropriately at the time of divorce, our attorneys will also look toward the future. We know that professional athletes' income can vary sizably from one year to the next. We will be there to help ensure that any spousal support is based on the most accurate and current income assessment.
When the courts are making determinations regarding spousal support, factors such as the following are considered:
- Earning potential
- Occupation
- Education
- Health
- Age
