[quote=Anonymous]OP- start making plans. You will need to be strategic about it. Look for an attorney, meet with a few and lay down your situation. A good one will advise and be very honest about your prospect. Stay away from any that make huge unrealistic promises. Familiarize yourself with his financial situation ( bank accounts, pension plans, investements...) It's better to have that before you file than have to pay a forensic accountant later. Did you work before you became a mom? If yes, reach out to former bosses or colleagues and see if you can get back on the job market; even if it does not help financially at first, it will be good for you emotionally to get some sort of control over your own finances. Even if you don't have alimony forever, that combine with child support and him being responsible for health insurance, school fees... will allow you to get back on your feet the first few years after the divorce. Your children need and deserve a mom who is happy, and right now they don't have that. And please, when you decide to divorce, take time to build a life for yourself and your children only and do not rush to bring somebody else in. You might find that you like that better. Sending you love and light.[/quote]
