October 4, 2022/in family law/by David Matine

September 16, 2022/in family law/by Kirk Drennan Law

Alabama takes child support seriously. There is a clear expectation that both legal parents of a child contribute to that child’s upbringing. That’s why the basic calculation method used in this state requires both parents’ income. Even if one parent brings in a significantly lower income than the other, their earnings are still considered part […]

Do I Still Pay Alimony If My Ex Gets Remarried?

August 1, 2022/in family law/by Kirk Drennan Law

The decision to divorce isn’t one that goes away once the final settlements are signed. In fact, the financial fallout of a divorce could affect you for years or even decades. If you’re a high-earning individual with a low-earning or homemaking spouse, it’s likely that you’ll be ordered to pay periodic alimony. This generally doesn’t […]

July 21, 2022/in Divorce & Family Law/by Kirk Drennan Law

There’s a widespread belief that the first seven years of marriage are the hardest. Some experts say that if you make it through the first seven years, your marriage is likely to stand the test of time. However, recent research pushes back against that claim. A growing number of Americans are divorcing at much older […]
