Spousal Maintenance

Spousal Maintenance with Geffner Kersch in New York

In New York, spousal support is called maintenance, while most other states define this as alimony. The attorneys at Geffner Kersch use their vast experience to help their clients navigate through the newly enacted temporary and post-divorce maintenance guidelines which now provide a formula to calculate maintenance. We strive to make sure that these maintenance guidelines are appropriately applied to you, and ensure that you are protected.

In January 2016, attorneys Alisa J. Geffner and Carolyn D. Kersch presented a live program which is available on the web discussing the nuts and bolts of these new guidelines. This program has been viewed by more than 200 attorneys and other individuals throughout New York State.

Should your case require litigation, our attorneys will aggressively fight for your rights, both in and out of the courtroom. We will make sure that both spousal maintenance and child support (if needed) are calculated as fairly as possible. We are here to see to our client's needs and will do everything in our power to make sure that they are awarded a fair and just amount. Our attorneys serve the greater New York City area, which includes all five boroughs in addition to all of Long Island and Westchester counties.
