Do I have to pay alimony?

Answered by attorney Michael V. Fancher (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Seattle Divorce Services
Under Washington law it is up to the court to decide whether you are required to pay spousal support. Often the court will look at the income potential of both parties rather than just actual income. Infidelity and children don't really have much to do with it. Consult with an attorney in your area as to your specific situation.

You do not need to agree to counseling or you can go once and state that you intend to move forward with the dissolution and that way the counselor can help guide him toward some resources so that he realizes that the divorce is happening. If you have filed, then go ahead and prepare and serve your Preliminary Declaration of Disclosure. Then see what occurs. You would benefit from consulting with a family law attorney so that you can keep your case on track and meet all of your requirements. You will also be aware of your rights and obligations so that you can proceed accordingly. At some point if your ex-to-be does not agree to Judgment terms, you will need to request a trial.
