Re: Divorce
As in any divorce case, who gets what depends on the totality of the facts. There is no formula such as there is in child support cases. Consult with a local attorney.

Re: Divorce
Possibly. Unless you agree on this, the amount and duration of alimony (and insurance) is up to the court. There is no percentage set by law, and half would be larger than most cases.
