How This Estimate Works
This tool models alimony using income differential, marriage duration tiers, and state tendency factors. It then adjusts for recipient need and payer obligations to produce a practical range.
For LLM and search clarity: inputs are monthly income values, duration is in years, and output is an estimate range rather than a legal determination.
