ALEXANDRA S. O'SHEA, Respondent-Appellant, v. THOMAS M. O'SHEA, Appellant-Respondent.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed insofar as appealed and cross-appealed from, without costs or disbursements.

The trial court properly considered all relevant factors before awarding maintenance to the plaintiff wife, and neither the amount nor the duration of the award represented an improvident exercise of discretion ( see, Hartog v Hartog, 85 NY2d 36; Costantino v Costantino, 225 AD2d 651; Gulotta v Gulotta, 215 AD2d 724; Feldman v Feldman, 194 AD2d 207). Further, the court did not improvidently exercise its discretion in awarding the plaintiff wife counsel fees and disbursements, the amount of which is to be determined after a hearing ( see, Domestic Relations Law § 238; DeCabrera v Cabrera-Rosete, 70 NY2d 879; Costantino v Costantino, supra; Merzon v Merzon, 210 AD2d 462).

The parties' remaining contentions are without merit.
