Understanding Spousal Maintenance Laws in Arizona

Alimony, or spousal maintenance as it is referred to in Arizona, is the monthly amount of money that one spouse may have to pay the other during and after the divorce proceeding. Many factors are involved when it comes to awarding spousal maintenance.

Arizona Revised Statute § 25 - 319 sets forth the factors that the court must consider to determine whether an individual is entitled to spousal maintenance.

The court will need to make three decisions in regard to an award of spousal maintenance:

• Is a spouse eligible to receive spousal maintenance?
• How much will the other spouse have to pay?
• How long will the payments be required?
