The Changing Face of Spousal Maintenance

Event Description


Originally spousal maintenance was ordered in cases where a wife stayed home for many years, giving up her own ability to have a career or get retirement benefits by raising children and taking care of a husband and home.  That is no longer the case.  We have seen the pendulum swing several ways over the years and with the Passolt case there appears to be another change in the air.  We are also seeing a change with more women being the primary bread winner.  A small panel of family law attorneys will discuss what they have seen recently with regard to spousal maintenance and will encourage attendees to share what they have seen as well. 

After the CLE we hope you will join us at Lyon's Pub  in downtown Minneapolis for a meet and greet.  This is a great opportunity to socialize with your fellow solo and small firm and family law practitioners.  Complimentary appetizers will be provided by the Solo and Small Firm Section.

Pam Green, Green Law Office
Susan Mundahl, Mundahl Law
