Common questions about Family Law in Arizona

Answered by Arizona Attorney Search Network

What is spousal maintenance in Arizona?

Arizona uses the term 'spousal maintenance' rather than 'alimony.' Under ARS § 25-319, the court considers the standard of living during the marriage, length of the marriage, age and health of both parties, ability to earn, contributions to the other spouse's career, and other factors. Awards may be temporary, rehabilitative (set duration), or - rarely - of indefinite duration.

How long does a divorce take in Arizona?

Arizona requires a 60-day waiting period after service of the petition before a divorce can be finalized (ARS § 25-329). Uncontested divorces typically resolve in 90-120 days; contested cases involving custody or asset disputes commonly take 12-18 months.

What happens to retirement accounts in an Arizona divorce?

Retirement contributions made during the marriage are community property under ARS § 25-318 and must be divided equitably. Division of qualified retirement plans (401(k), pensions) requires a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO), which is a separate court order specifying how the plan administrator should split the account without triggering taxes or early-withdrawal penalties.
