Frequently Asked Questions
To file for divorce in Kierland, you must: (1) establish 90 days of Arizona residency under A.R.S. § 25-312, (2) file a Petition for Dissolution in Maricopa County Superior Court, (3) serve your spouse, (4) wait the mandatory 60-day period under A.R.S. § 25-329, and (5) reach a settlement or proceed to trial. A Kierland divorce attorney can guide you through each step and ensure your property rights are protected.
Spousal maintenance (alimony) in Arizona is governed by A.R.S. § 25-319. A court may award maintenance if one spouse lacks sufficient property for reasonable needs or cannot be self-sufficient. Factors include the standard of living during marriage, duration of marriage, and each spouse's earning capacity. Unlike child support, spousal maintenance is not based on a set formula — a Kierland divorce attorney is essential to negotiate a fair outcome.
Retirement accounts earned during marriage are community property under A.R.S. § 25-318 and are subject to division. Dividing a 401(k) or pension requires a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO). IRAs require a different transfer mechanism. Improperly dividing these accounts can result in taxes and penalties. A Kierland divorce attorney experienced in asset division can ensure your retirement interests are protected.
