Leopold Law
Sometimes courts make a financial award known as alimony to one of the spouses. It is usually tax deductible to the paying spouse, but it is taxable income to the recipient spouse. Alimony can be awarded to a spouse of either gender. Usually, however, a spouse who receives alimony was financially dependent on the other spouse during the marriage. Under N.J.S.A. 2A:34-23(b), the court is supposed to consider 14 statutory factors when deciding whether to award alimony and how much to award. Moreover, there are different types of alimony, including limited duration alimony, open duration alimony, reimbursement alimony when one spouse financially supported the other spouse so that they could receive higher education, and rehabilitative alimony.

Sentiment Analysis
Howard was very professional, communicative and competent.
Defended me and helped resolve a financial settlement quickly and fairly, always representing my best interest.
Howard is an awesome attorney and goes the extra mile to help resolve your legal issues.
In addition to discovery of roughly 30 years of records and transactions, Howard's team had to reconstruct a lot of the invisible transactions in order to make our case.
He also communicated very effectively every step of the way.
My ex husband refused to sign the papers and Howard was able to track him down and get the divorce done within 6 months.
Not only that, he is very straight forward and does not play games which gave me a clear vision on what I can expect and what I need to do.
Very Helpful and Co-operative!
My business utilizes their legal services on a regular basis & they are beyond professional, respectful, timely & efficient.
Leopold is an astute professional that is caring and understanding.
