If your ex has increased their own earnings or is cohabiting with a new partner, it may be possible to reduce the amount of maintenance you pay to them. Ongoing maintenance will always be informed by your partner’s needs. If those needs change, or they are able to meet them from other sources, then it may be possible to apply for a downward variation of the payments you make.
If you think it is appropriate for your maintenance payments to drop, then Vardags can advise you. We will help you demonstrate how your spouse’s needs of changed, or how they are receiving extra cash.
Though the court’s decision will depend greatly on your circumstances, we are confident that we can help you to reduce what you are required to pay.
