Tennessee Alimony Analysis Results
Based on § 36-5-121 statutory factors and selected alimony type
Tennessee alimony is decided case by case under statutory factors per § 36-5-121(i). This calculator provides an estimate only. Tennessee recognizes four alimony types: Rehabilitative (self-sufficiency training), Alimony in Futuro (long-term periodic), Transitional (adjustment assistance), and Alimony in Solido (lump-sum/fixed amount including attorney fees in proper cases). Courts consider: marriage length, age, health, earning capacity, education, separate property, standard of living, contributions to spouse's career, fault if relevant, child-care impact, and tax consequences. Tennessee has no fixed formula for calculating alimony. This tool cannot predict specific court outcomes. Consult a Tennessee family law attorney for advice specific to your situation.

What Are Tennessee's Four Alimony Types
Tennessee recognizes four distinct alimony categories under § 36-5-121.
Rehabilitative Alimony
Helps disadvantaged spouse achieve self-sufficiency through education, training, or job skills. Awarded when rehabilitation is feasible but requires time and resources.
Alimony In Futuro
Long-term periodic support when economic disadvantage exists and rehabilitation is not feasible. Continues until death, remarriage, or modification.
Transitional Alimony
Short-term assistance for adjustment to post-divorce life when rehabilitation is unnecessary but economic assistance helps transition. Not modifiable once awarded.
Alimony In Solido
Fixed lump-sum or installment amount not modifiable once set. May include attorney fee awards in proper cases. Creates vested right that survives death.
