Alimony
In Wisconsin, we don't call it "alimony" anymore. Now we call it "maintenance" (sometimes,
under certain circumstances, we call it "family support," too). There are a lot of factors that have
to be considered when it comes to maintenance. How long were you married? Did you both work during the marriage?
What is the highest level of education that both of you have obtained? Did either of you contribute to the other's
educational pursuits monetarily? Are either of you disabled? Were one of you a stay-at-home parent during the marriage?
Are you both working now? If you are contemplating divorce and you think that maintenance might be an issue, call
or e-mail me for a free consultation and I will let you know what the chances are that maintenance payments may
be in the cards for you.
Maintenance & Family Support Payments in Wisconsin:
Payments must be sent to the Wisconsin Support Collections Trust Fund ("WI SCTF"), Box 74200, Milwaukee,
WI 53274-0200. The annual fee increases after January 1, 2008 to $60.
