The groundbreaking Act Reforming Alimony in Massachusetts substantially transforms alimony cases in Massachusetts.


 


If you are considering divorce, currently in negotiations/litigation, or have an existing alimony order, this new law may well affect you.


 


This complimentary workshop will address how the new law has changed provisions for alimony:


 



  • By eliminating lifetime alimony

  • By creating new types of alimony

  • By establishing durational limits on alimony

  • By excluding income from assets divided in divorce

  • By reducing, terminating or suspending alimony upon cohabitation of the recipient spouse.
