Maintenance Calculations
Guidelines for Maintenance (formerly alimony) in Colorado: The Colorado Legislature revised the maintenance statute effective January 1, 2014. There are now guidelines for maintenance, similar to those of child support. Under the relatively new law, the amount of presumed maintenance is calculated by taking forty percent of the higher income party’s monthly adjusted gross income less fifty percent of the lower income party’s monthly adjusted gross income. C.R.S. 14-10-114. There are certain exceptions and conditions. To strategize regarding maintenance in your case, you need an experienced, intelligent attorney.
