Question:

I found emails and pictures (non-explicit) that my wife sent to another man. All of them said I love you, or you have my heart and soul. I also have cell phone logs of her talking to this man all day while I was at work. She owns a home business that is fully financed by my job. I also found an explicit picture he sent her.

Although I can't actually prove she has slept with him, does infidelity affect how much alimony I will have to pay her in the state of Georgia?

Question:

After being married for 28 years, my wife chose to leave me for another woman. She and her lover are now living together and consider themselves to be "married" to each other even though the marriage is not legal in our state. I myself did have an affair 26 years ago but we got past it and remained married for all of these years. Although neither of us were particularly happy in the marriage and did not have a sexual relationship for many years, the introduction of her new lover is the reason that I have filed for divorce.

My wife does not work and did not work throughout most of our marriage. Her new "spouse" is supporting her and has been since they began living together more than 6 months ago. I did pay out half of the equity on our home to my wife at the time that she indicated she was leaving. She is now asking for a substantial amount of maintenance for life. I know that she would not be entitled if she were remarried to a man, but what happens since she is "married" to a woman?

One of the first questions I am asked by prospective clients is “Will I have to pay maintenance?” And my response is “It depends.” I then proceed to explain to prospective clients how Courts in Missouri are required to make certain findings and consider certain factors before they may order one spouse to pay the other alimony or maintenance.

Alimony, also referred to in some states as “maintenance”, is a payment to or for a spouse or former spouse under a divorce or separation instrument. Generally, court-ordered alimony is tax deductible to you and taxable to your recipient spouse or former spouse. If you are the person paying alimony, careful consideration of the tax benefits of alimony payments can assist you in calculating the most equitable outcome in a divorce case.
