Alimony is determined on a case-by-case basis in Georgia. Any numbers of factors will be considered, including the length of the marriage, the job skills, age and education of each party, the likelihood that a party will be able to obtain employment, and the standard of living of the family prior to the divorce. If your financial situation warrants it, we often suggest a certified divorce financial planner be retained, and make a proposed finding as to what is fair under the circumstances.
