What am I entitled if I get a divorce?

Answered by attorney John E. Kirchner (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at John E. Kirchner
You are entitled to a fair share of all marital property. That includes a fair share of the portion of the retirement that was earned or contributed during the marriage. There are no simple, fixed rules for deciding what is "fair". But, if you and your spouse cannot agree to what is fair, a judge will usually start by looking at 50/50 split of the overall total - not necessarily 50/50 as to each individual asset. You may be entitled to spousal maintenance (alimony) if the financial situation justifies it and child support will be required. Because there are no simple rules for any of these potential entitlements and final decisions require evaluation of all the relevant facts, you need to consult an attorney to obtain a more comprehensive explanation to identify reasonable expectations in your case.

Do I have to pay alimony?

Divorce lawyer at John E. Kirchner
You may or may not be required to pay alimony for some period of time; you need to consult an attorney familiar with Georgia law to evaluate the actual facts of your case in the context of what Georgia law requires. As a rule, alimony involves a balancing test of need versus ability to pay and alimony is only payable for the time it appears necessary for the receiving spouse to become self-sufficient. In some states infidelity will bar alimony; in other states, infidelity is not relevant to anything.
