Over the years SMP Law has managed to create a collection of blogs covering topics related to family law, such as parental alienation, child support, parenting time, parenting plans, spousal support, and our notable cases each year, to name a few. We wanted to share some of our blogs over the years. Enjoy!

We were just dating so why do I have to pay spousal support? This is exactly what happened in the case with Michael Latner in his relationship with Ms. Climans.

Paying support can be a complicated matter.  There is child support and spousal support and the factors that apply to paying support differ for each type of support.

Many people have basic assumptions about what spousal support is and who is entitled to it.  Water cooler talk further confuses the issue because advice is given among co-workers, friends and others and more often than not, the advice is inaccurate.
