Spousal support is determined based on a number of factors and objectives. The determination of entitlement to support is an analysis based on the specific circumstances a person finds themselves in. As a starting place once entitlement to support has been established people can turn to the Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines. These guidelines are not legislation but do give an idea as to the possible ranges of support.
If spousal support is a potential issue it is very important to contact a lawyer. At Taylor Wray our lawyers are committed to offering you excellent advice and information specific to your personal situation.
