Signing of the Alimony Reform Act:"The Most Dramatic Change to Family Law in Decades"

Since the Alimony Reform Act was first proposed, it has been the topic of conversation across Massachusetts and the nation as a whole. The act's proposal brought alimony horror stories to the forefront of the press, increasing pressure on legislation one article at a time. The alimony stance in Massachusetts prior to the passing of this new act was regarded as "archaic," "unfair," and even "hell-ish" especially amidst thecurrent economic turmoil. When it came to this outdated alimony stance, Massachusetts' legislation had no choice but to take a good, hard, look at the word "forever."

Since the signing of the Alimony Reform Act, the press has turned from horror stories of past percieved alimony prisons to relief.

Many agree that the attention paid to this reform is warranted. The signing of the Alimony Reform Act was even noted as "the most dramatic change to family law in decades."
