Legal Question in Family Law in California

My husband and I have agreed to divorce. We have been legally married for over 28 years, and have 3 grown children. We live in different states; he lives in CA and I live in GA now. He makes ten times what I make. Can I get alimony or other compensation support?

If you file and serve in California where your husband resides, there's a distinct possibility you would be entitled to spousal support. Factors the court will weigh would be not only the length of your significantly long marriage but the financial status of the parties and the period of time you've been separated.

Please meet with an experienced family law attorney in California to discuss your legal options.
