Will the length of my marriage affect the settlement with my spouse?

The general rule is: the longer the marriage, the longer the duration of spousal support. The longer the duration of your marriage also means that you may expect to have roughly the same standard of living between the spouses after separation; this affects the amount of spousal support paid.
