Beacuse you were divorced in Maryland, even though you are now in Florida, Maryland law would apply.   That said, and not knowing Maryland law, I would guess that whether or not you can modify your alimony depends on the specific language in your agreement.  The best thing to do is have the alimony provision reviewed by a Maryland attorney.   Best of luck, Cindy S.
