Summary
Indiana recognizes spousal maintenance, also known as alimony, with temporary, permanent, and rehabilitative options. Custody arrangements do not automatically disqualify a spouse from receiving maintenance. Marital misconduct, such as infidelity, typically does not impact maintenance decisions. Property division considers ownership, financial contributions, and whether assets were acquired during the marriage. If a home was sold before divorce and controlled by an LLC, the spouse may have limited grounds to dispute the sale, but could argue for a share of proceeds based on marital contributions. The court may consider how proceeds were used, such as for childrens benefit, in determining property division.Full Conversation
What if the husband has the kids custody? Can a wife still get alimony with no disabilities?
