Last week this blog discussed the various types of spousal support that may be awarded in Kentucky. However, Kentucky statutes do not contain a specific formula regarding how much spousal support should be awarded in any given case. Instead, courts examine a variety of factors when determining what type of spousal support to award, and how much.
The factors involved in resolving a spousal support dispute are varied. Ultimately, it is important for a fair result to be reached that takes into account both party's financial situation and needs, along with each spouse's ability to earn a living.
