Alimony in Hamilton: how it is calculated
Alimony in Hamilton follows Ohio law, not a local rule — the same statute applies whether the case is filed in Butler County or anywhere else in the state. Here is what that formula produces, and where a Hamilton case is actually heard.
Where a Hamilton case goes
A divorce filed in Hamilton is heard by the Ohio court for Butler County. The judge applies the state statute below; the county sets the filing procedure, not the amount. Hamilton has about 63,953 residents (Census Bureau, 2024 estimate).

What the statute says
