Property Division
Massachusetts is an equitable distribution state, not a community property state. Many people have questions or concerns about how property is divided. Equitable distribution means that the property and assets are divided equally, but not necessarily 50-50.
Alimony
Also sometimes called spousal support or spousal maintenance, alimony is the money paid from one spouse to the other in order to support the lifestyle that they have grown accustomed to. Alimony may not awarded in every divorce.
Divorce Matters Involving Children
