That's not enough information on which to base a full answer. However, in a long marriage such as yours you have substantial rights, and you should discuss your situation in detail with a local divorce lawyer.

You have rights to equitable distribution and possibly maintenance. If you have children, and are the custodial parent, you have rights to child support.
