Arizona Divorce Laws
In Arizona, divorce is called Dissolution of Marriage and it is a "No-Fault" State. This means that the court will not analyze the reason for the divorce or which spouse is at fault for causing the divorce.
Divorce is a legal process by which the court analyzes the couple's property and divides it. The court will typically divide community property in half (unless there are special considerations, including alimony or spousal support), and separate property will be awarded to whoever owns that separate property.
In theory, dividing property is easy. In reality, there are many factors and considerations that a court must analyze before making final ruling on how to divide assets.
Talk to the attorneys of ARTEMiS Law Firm to discuss how a court will likely divide your property, bank accounts, retirement accounts, vehicles, assets, and debts in a divorce.
Alimony And Spousal Support
In Arizona, alimony is called spousal support. There is no automatic calculator or particular formula that a court follows. A court will consider, among other things, these factors:
Length of marriage
Age and earning ability of the spouses
Standard of living during the marriage
Ability to pay spousal support
Contribution to the marriage
Spousal support for those with special needs children requires a special approach.
