What is alimony?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Alimony, according to the Turkish Language Association \u201c"The entirety of things necessary for sustenance; livelihood."\u201d<\/strong> It is defined as follows. In legal terminology, alimony is defined as the monthly payment, ordered by a court, that a person gives to someone they are obligated to support and care for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maintenance debt is a personal debt arising from family law. Due to its personal nature, it does not pass to heirs upon death, cannot be offset against any other debt, and cannot be seized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is believed that the happiness and peace of the family, the smallest unit of society, will contribute to the happiness and peace of society as a whole. Therefore, for the benefit of society, public authorities have taken protective measures for spouses and children during or after the dissolution of marriage. Alimony is one of these measures. The obligation to pay alimony is both a moral and a legal obligation. Generally, four types of alimony are foreseen in our legal system. Alimony can apply not only to spouses or children but also to descendants or ancestors who would fall into poverty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Points Regarding Alimony<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Turkish Civil Code<\/a> Divorce law grants equal rights to both men and women, and the right to alimony is one of these rights. Alimony is not awarded in cases of gross negligence. Alimony can be paid in a single lump sum or in monthly installments. The amount of the payment is determined according to the financial situation of the spouses.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Types of Alimony<\/strong> What are they?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n


\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 1.\u00a0Interim Alimony: This is a type of alimony awarded by a judge upon the initiation of divorce proceedings and, if deemed necessary, may continue until the outcome of the case is finalized. It is provided to prevent a negative change in the living standards of the parties during the divorce process. Interim alimony comes into play when one of the parties faces financial hardship due to the divorce proceedings. In divorce cases, it is a temporary payment, usually made by the husband to the wife, to cover the care, housing, and sustenance of the spouse and any children, either monthly or in a lump sum as deemed necessary by the judge, until the case is definitively resolved financially.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
