Divorce Alimony
I was asked today whether a lawyer assigned potential new customers through a divorce or separation in Attorney Family Court other spouse can be eliminated (discharged) in bankruptcy cases to answer is: it depends.
In Generally, domestic support commitments, which are bonds issued for the maintenance or support of a former spouse or child, including child support, are not dischargeable in a bankruptcy case any way, the key is whether the type of debt for alimony or child maintenance or spouse.   This is not always clear in the decree of divorce or other family law order.
Obligations of the marital status of compensation, such as those in which an award is made against a spouse to compensate for assets given to another, usually not considered as support or maintenance. From Similarly, attorney's fees awarded to counsel for the other spouse, not likely to support or maintenance.

Thus, the key is whether the claim in question is the support or maintenance of a spouse or child, and the chapter of bankruptcy is involved. This involves obtaining May point of view of a advice family law and a qualified bankruptcy lawyer in the geographical area where the issue has been raised.
Why women awarded alimony after divorce?
i dont care if he remained at home while working, or would not work to care for their children, or were simply lazy, or her husband has done a lot of money! you decided to stay home and not working, when their choices or their husband, it was to protect! and there need not deserve to be paid after the marriage is finished! Why courts give these women the money? I know that men receive alimony, but most are women!
This comes from the outdated notion that women now have more difficulty finding employment, etc., and need the money. Although we now statistics show that women can not in any way, earn less money than men or have more difficulty finding work. In fact, they have priority in enrollment in college and therefore have a slight advantage in their career.
