Re: Child support and Alimony
You have alot of issues here and this response will not be conclusive for your case. First I suggest that if you feel your marriage is over and nothing can be done to save your marriage then file for divorce. At this time all of your questions would be addressed. Who ever has custody of the children, the other parent must pay child support. Review my web page
www.attorney-4u.com for more information about divorce, child support and how to calculate child support. The issue of alimony must be reviewed in its entirety. There are many issues to review to determine if alimony is applicable and if it is then the amount and term must be worked out. Feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss this further.
