Alimony: Duration Of The Marriage Is A Factor In Determining Alimony

One of the factors that a judge looks at when determining alimony is how long you’ve been married.

If you’ve been married 17 years or longer then there is a presumption of permanent alimony.

If you’ve been married between 7 and 17 years, that’s considered a moderate-length marriage and there’s no presumption in favor or against permanent alimony.

And if you’ve been married less than 7 years there’s a presumption against permanent alimony.

There are numerous other factors that a court looks at in determining how much alimony to order in a particular case.
