Alimony Law In Michigan

In Michigan, spousal support is not automatically granted and must be requested during divorce proceedings. Whether the judge grants the order of spousal support will depend on the reported income of both parties, the ability to pay and the need for support among several other factors. They may also look at the length of the marriage and the relative health of both sides.

Often, temporary spousal support or maintenance is ordered at the start of a divorce in order to help the receiving party “get their feet under them.” Temporary spousal support is short-term and often has a specified end date. A permanent spousal support order is rarer, but it can happen if the marriage was longer-lasting.
