Spousal maintenance may be available in certain Texas divorces when one spouse cannot meet reasonable minimum needs after the marriage ends and the legal requirements for support are satisfied. Eligibility can depend on factors such as the length of the marriage, earning ability, disability, family violence, and other circumstances.
The amount and duration of maintenance can vary significantly from one case to another. Courts may consider income, education, employment history, health, financial resources, and each spouse’s ability to become self-supporting.
