What factors will the court consider when determining how much alimony to award to a party? Is a partys degree of fault considered?

0

Fault is not normally considered when awarding alimony. The goal in awarding spousal support is to help the spouse receiving alimony to become self-supporting within a reasonable time. Generally, the courts consider one half the length of the marriage to be a reasonable time a spouse to become self-supporting.
