California Alimony Calculation Guide

Summary

Alimony in California is determined by various factors, not a strict formula. For a 12-year marriage, courts consider the marriage duration, each spouses earning capacity, financial needs, age, health, standard of living, and contributions to the others career. Online calculators can provide rough estimates, but consulting a local attorney is recommended for precise calculations. If a contract is silent on attorney fees, each party typically bears its own costs unless a statute allows fee shifting. Incomplete architectural contracts may lead to reimbursement claims, and ownership of drawings depends on contractual terms. If an architect refuses to complete a project, hiring another may risk copyright infringement. Consulting a local attorney for specific advice is advisable.
