Re: spousal support

Maybe 50% or so of what you're hopefully already receiving for the three children for child support calculated in accordance with the Virginia Child Support Guidelines.

Re: spousal support

The guidelines for temporary support indicate spousal support (prior to the final divorce decree) of approximately $3850 plus child support of approximately $1580.

Permanent spousal support would be determined by your needs and his ability to pay; after spousal support is calculated, child support would be based on your income from spousal support and his income less spousal support.
