Can spousal support be awarded in a same-sex divorce in New York?
Spousal support or alimony can be awarded in same-sex divorces. The court considers various factors, including the length of the marriage, the standard of living during the marriage, and the financial resources and earning potential of each spouse. The goal is to arrive at a fair and just arrangement based on the circumstances of the case.
