In many cases, one spouse may need financial support after a divorce. This is known as alimony or spousal maintenance. The courts look at several factors when deciding how much support to award, including:
How long the marriage lasted
Each spouse’s income and earning ability
Health and age
Standard of living during the marriage
No two families are the same, and neither are spousal support arrangements. Our Hazel Dell divorce attorneys work closely with you to ensure any support agreements are fair and reflect your needs now and in the future.
If you have children, they are likely your top concern—and ours, too. We work with parents in Hazel Dell to develop child custody agreements that prioritize your children’s emotional and physical well-being.
Washington courts aim for parenting plans that support strong relationships with both parents when possible. Custody may be sole or joint, and includes both:
Physical custody – where the child lives
Legal custody – who makes decisions about education, healthcare, etc.
We’ll help you create a realistic parenting plan that reduces conflict and supports your children’s long-term stability.
Raising children is expensive, and child support helps ensure they continue to thrive after a divorce. In Washington, support amounts are calculated using a statewide schedule based on each parent’s income and number of children.
Other factors can also affect the final amount, including:
Special medical or childcare needs
Disability of a parent or child
Parenting time split between households
We’ll help you complete all necessary paperwork, make sure income is correctly calculated, and push for a support amount that truly supports your children. We also help modify existing child support orders when circumstances change.
Washington is a community property state, meaning that everything acquired during the marriage is considered shared. Property and assets are divided equitably—not necessarily 50/50, but fairly.
We help divide assets such as:
Homes and real estate
Bank and retirement accounts
Vehicles
Business interests
Debts and loans
We also help protect separate property (things you owned before the marriage or received as a gift or inheritance), and can bring in financial experts to locate or value assets when needed.
At Cohen Family Law Firm, we know this is a difficult time—and we’re here to help you through it. Divorce isn’t just a legal process—it’s an emotional journey. That’s why we offer honest advice, clear steps, and strong legal advocacy that puts your goals first.
