Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey
Good Income but many bills effect on Alimony
Been married for 17 years. I make a decent amount of money (over 100K per year) but we live paycheck to paycheck because of my wife's irresponsible spending and credit card use over the years. We have a house and one child. Now she wants a divorce (not me). What can I expect to pay in alimony?

Re: Good Income but many bills effect on Alimony
THe debt must be paid and reduces your available, net income which is
unknown without additional information. Secondly, you have not indicated either what your wife earns or her education and work experience so that a level of income can be imputed to her.
Call me if you like.

I have read what the other attorney wrote, and as usual Gary is right on.
You have a mess on your hands. No attorney can advise you based on the small amount of information you gave.
You really need to sit down with an attorney and get some advice, find out what your options are. This is not something to ignore, it will only get worse.
