Continue paying alimony at the age of 18?

Questioner

My daughters will be 18 at the end of the year. Should father continue to pay alimony or not? Should this be included somewhere in the agreement?

Lawyer

The father must continue to pay this, but there is now the choice to have the maintenance paid directly to your daughters. Your children now each have an independent right to request maintenance from both parents.

Lawyer

Alimony must be paid under the legal provisions until the age of 21. Sometimes longer if this is determined in a covenant, for example. Alimony is paid to the child itself from the age of 18.
