You are going to have to give more detail than this. There are several things that need to take place in order for a common law marriage to be recognized and show cause as to why you should get support in the capacity you are looking for it in. Would you like to describe in greater detail??

Alimony is not a "given" in any divorce - common law or with a license. There are many factors, including the spouses abilty to make a living, how long they were out of the workforce, and how long the marriage lasted, etc.
