[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Virginia is the wild west when it comes to divorce and predictability. In general, the courts favor the lower earning or non working spouse, regardless of the actual circumstances, so long as it's the wife. I will never let my son live in VA out of fear that he'd one day get divorced there. [/quote] I know several men who have received alimony & child support , as the lower earner in the marriage. In all cases but one, the wife did more in terms of childcare/household responsibilities too (as is the case in most families). Was not relevant. [b]I believe alimony is often awarded even if there are no kids. [/b][/quote] I'm a woman and had to pay alimony in VA, no kids. He did nothing to further my career and he benefitted from my higher salary during our marriage and I still had to pay him alimony. Three years, married ages 27-30 (me) and 31-34 (him).[/quote]
