Under California law, spousal support, or alimony as it's still often known, is the payment by one divorcing spouse to the other of an amount sufficient to maintain the standard of living that was established during the marriage.
The right to alimony is based on the reality that most married couples have differing incomes and earning power, and also recognizes the fact that the spouse with a lower income or less developed job skills will generally need some financial help, at least for a few years.

As a community property state, California presumes that marital property will be divided equally between the spouses in a divorce. This is by no means as simple as it sounds. Questions as to the value of particular assets, or even whether an asset should be regarded as community property, can make property division a complex and sharply contested exercise.
One of the most important practical arrangements that divorcing parents need to work out is the financial support of their children. Most child support questions can be answered with reference to the California Child Support Guidelines, but the guidelines themselves are fairly complicated.
Parents sometimes also need advice about whether the amount determined by applying the guidelines should be adjusted up or down, depending on special circumstances.For the advice of a lawyer who can guide you through the California child support process, trust The Law Firm of J. Hector Moreno, Jr. & Associates.
