Spousal Maintenance (Partner Alimony)

If you want to get divorced, you may be entitled to spousal support in some cases. Under Dutch law, you must demonstrate that you are in need and unable to financially support yourself after divorce. The amount of spousal support to be paid usually depends on the financial capacity of the spouse obliged to pay. Franssen Advocaten can calculate your financial capacity based on your income to estimate how much spousal support you can pay. The duration of the support depends on the length of your marriage and whether or not you have minor children. The maximum duration is five years.
