alimony

[ashleyrohr]

I have been married for 6years, have not worked since I have been married. My husband is the bread winner in this family, has always made enough where I didn't have to work. Now I want a divorce, can I get alimony?

[Attorney Howard Iken]

That depends on many other factors. But based on what you said - some form of temporary alimony may be appropriate.

In a 6 year marriage permanent alimony is unlikely.
