Re: What am i intitiled to?

Well, that can be a rather complicated question. A judge may decide that you are entitled to more but it really depends on the facts of your particular situation. If your spouse will not agree to give you alimony or other provisions, the court can order it, but it really depends on many factors, such as: whether you have been working; what your income is, if any; what his income is, etc. You should probably at least consult with an attorney to get an idea what your options are and that person will need more details to give you an accurate assessment.
