Colorado Springs Spousal Maintenance Attorneys
Alimony Attorney in Colorado Springs
Get Straight Answers on Spousal Maintenance in El Paso County
Few parts of a divorce cause more anxiety than the support question: what you will pay, or what you will live on. Colorado calls it spousal maintenance, and the statute gives courts a framework rather than a guarantee. Johnson Law Group helps Colorado Springs spouses face that question with straight answers and a plan built around your real numbers.
You will find our Colorado Springs office on Chuckwagon Road in Rockrimmon, a short drive off Interstate 25. Support conversations often involve sensitive financial records, and you can review them with us in person or securely by video and phone. We work whichever way keeps things easiest for you.

Family Law We Handle in Colorado Springs
Support questions rarely arrive alone; they sit inside a divorce or legal separation with property and parenting issues attached. For eligibility, duration, and the statutory framework, see what Colorado courts consider for spousal maintenance. We also handle the matters that usually surround it:
- Divorce: How dissolution of marriage works in Colorado, from filing to final decree.
- Child custody: Parenting time and decision-making, what Colorado calls parental responsibilities.
- Child support: Setting, modifying, and enforcing support for your children.
- Paternity: Establishing legal parentage and the rights and duties that follow.
- Property division: Dividing marital property and debt, including homes, businesses, and retirement.
- Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements: Agreements that define property and expectations before or during marriage.
- Contested divorce: What happens when spouses cannot agree, from temporary orders to final hearing.
- Uncontested divorce: The streamlined path when both spouses agree on every major issue.

Why Colorado Springs Families Trust Johnson Law Group
The first call is not a sales call. We listen to what is happening in your family and what you want to protect. You will get a candid assessment of where you stand, even when it is not what you hoped to hear.
We build your case the way you would want it built. Organized records, clear strategy, and early preparation, not posturing. That work starts on day one so nothing catches you flat-footed later.
A client portal that keeps you in the loop. Real-time alerts, case milestones, and billing visibility, included at no additional cost. You will always know where your case stands.
When the finances are complicated, the work has to match. Variable income, executive compensation, and support questions that cross state lines are familiar ground here. Our Colorado, Illinois, and Wyoming footprint keeps multi-state maintenance issues under one roof.
No outcome guarantees. Only preparation. No lawyer can promise you a result, and you should be cautious of anyone who does. What we commit to is the preparation, strategy, and communication that give your case its strongest footing.
What to Expect When You Call
Our consultation process is straightforward and built around three things you need before any decisions get made:
- We listen first. Tell us what is happening. The short version is fine, and we will ask the questions that matter.
- We explain what Colorado law says. In plain English, with no lecture and no scare tactics.
- We map your next step. You will leave knowing what comes next: filing, responding, gathering records, or taking time to think it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is spousal maintenance decided for Colorado Springs cases?
Maintenance is not a separate lawsuit; it is decided inside your divorce or legal separation case at the El Paso County Judicial Building in downtown Colorado Springs. The judge assigned to your dissolution rules on support as part of that case. If maintenance was ordered before and circumstances have changed, the modification is filed there as well.
My spouse lives in another state. Can you still handle the support question?
Often, yes. A court needs personal jurisdiction over an out-of-state spouse before it can order maintenance, and that is one of the first things we sort out. With a footprint across Colorado, Illinois, Florida, and Wyoming, cross-state support questions are familiar territory for our team.
What should I bring to a consultation about alimony?
Recent pay stubs, last year’s tax return, and a rough picture of your monthly expenses are a strong start. If you do not have those handy, come with your questions anyway. We will tell you exactly what your situation calls for after we hear it.
