Alimony 101 in Utah

August 14, 2024 By Diana Telfer

Our Utah legislature was busy this past 2024 session re-numbering the entire family law related statutes.  Here’s a chart for easy reference to understand how and when alimony is determined.  Any substantive changes are in red and become effective as of September 1, 2024.

Alimony Under Utah Code §81-4
Termination of Alimony Under Utah Code §81-4-504

The purpose of alimony is to avoid a significant disparity between the parties’ lifestyles after their divorce.  Alimony is one of the most challenging and complex issues in a divorce because the factors can be quite subjective.  Over the past 19 years, I have expertly guided numerous clients through the complexities of alimony disputes, utilizing a range of strategic tools and solutions to achieve favorable outcomes without the need for court intervention.

Reflection: The Path To Empowerment

I was raised to work. My father’s mentality was “God helps those that help themselves.” While my childhood friends enjoyed watching Saturday morning cartoons, I had my weekly chores to complete cleaning my room, cleaning the bathroom, vacuuming, and dusting the living rooms and hallways, and then weeding.

Testimonials

I’ve been a past law enforcement officer of 15 years and I have worked with numerous attorneys during that time frame. Diana without a doubt is one of the choicest individuals that I have had the opportunity to associate with. Diana knows what she is doing and was compassionate to many of my concerns. I felt that she listend to what I had to say and took everything in to consideration. If I was wrong on an issue she was definitely not afraid to tell me that I was wrong on an issue. Which was good because in divorce and child custody cases there’s usually a lot of emotions involved. My case was definitely no exception. My significant other ended up with some emotional and psychological issues that made everything about 20 times harder unfortunately. After my significant other lost her attorney due to some issues. Diana ended up having to do the work of two attorneys. She did her best to help the other party understand while at the same time protect the interest of me and the kids. This divorce ended up taking over 2 years to settle because of numerous complications. Diana with her wisdom and knowledge was a blessing to our situation. She is not only a great person with integrity, but she is also a very knowledgeable attorney. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.
