Re: spousal support
In a lengthy marriage, a marriage over 10 years, should result in the payment of spousal support. The amount of spousal support would depend upon the ability of him to pay and your need for spousal support. Also you would have an interest in his retirement. You should consult with an attorney regarding your right to spousal support and a division of the community property. The value of the community property, especially if you own a home could be in the hundreds of thousands.
