We are talking semantics. Although the second
answer is more accurate as it takes into account
the costs of selling the home.
Based on the facts presented, it does not sound
like a good case for spousal maintenance. Although,
you may be able to argue for a higher share of
the property split.
You should talk with your counsel as voice
communication allows for an answer to be provided
in context. Additionally, your lawyer knows your case, he or she
will be in the best position to help you .
