L says that since I make more than $20K then I don't have "need". There was a case here that the woman made $20K and the judge thought she didn't "need" any alimony thus it has set a precidence.
H is only LEGALLY responsible to pay child support until S15 is 18 (he'll be 16 next month). Also, right now legally he doesn't have to help with S19 that still lives at home and goes to college at all. Legally, H doesn't have to maintain any health insurance on S's either after they are 18. Will he? I'd like to think he will. But right now he's not wanting to be responsible for anything. However, he does pay for house note and bills. He's living in his fantasy world with OW and loving every minute of it. So, I need to make sure that I can cover those expenses for my S's after H is not longer legally responsible for them. If H gets married to OW then he will have to deal with helping raise her 3 young kids.
I can get the D faster and that is what H wants. However, L thinks that I would get SOME alimony with proof of A but not much and not for long.
I have thought about getting a second opinion. But each time I talk with an attorney it's $250.
