Experienced Alimony and Spousal Maintenance Attorneys Here to Assist You

In many high-net-worth marriages, couples become accustomed to a particular level of comfort and financial stability. When a marriage ends, those same assets that once supported a shared lifestyle now need to be divided fairly, and that can be a complex and emotional process. At Stange Law Firm, we understand how important it is to protect your long-term financial interests while ensuring that your standard of living remains secure after ending a marriage.

Protecting Your Financial Future After Ending a Marriage

Whether you expect to pay or receive spousal maintenance (alimony), having experienced legal representation is critical. The attorneys at Stange Law Firm focus exclusively on domestic law, allowing us to bring deep insight and skill to each case we handle. We represent clients in dissolution matters involving substantial assets, business interests, investments, and other complex financial situations.

Our team understands that maintaining financial stability after separation is about more than numbers; it’s about protecting your future and the lifestyle you helped create. We use strategic negotiation, analysis, and, when necessary, assertive courtroom advocacy to pursue outcomes that reflect fairness and equity.

Diligently Seeking a Fair Settlement

When courts review alimony or spousal maintenance, they consider factors such as each spouse’s earning potential, standard of living, and the contributions made during the marriage. Judges also ensure that one spouse does not receive a disproportionate share of the marital estate. Our firm works closely with financial experts, including accountants and vocational professionals, to ensure all relevant details are brought to light.

We take the time to fully understand your goals, explain your options clearly, and provide honest guidance on what to expect at every stage of the process. Whether through settlement discussions or trial preparation, we remain focused on helping you reach a resolution that supports your long-term success and financial independence.
