Post-separation

Dear ferkel:

Greetings. Post separation support and alimony both end when you begin to cohabitate with a member of the opposite sex.

The length of payment for alimony and post separation support depends on the situation and circumstances of the marriage.

Please read about the basis for alimony on our website and let me know if you have any more questions or if you need me to copy the link in a post for you. Thank you.
