 Do I need an attorney?
What is the name of your state? Oklahoma
My wife and I have been married for close to three years, and have been fighting off and on for about a year. She now will not speak to me other than saying yes, no, etc - very unresponsive. She also says she doesn't want to be married anymore and wants me to help her move out by giving her money each month, thinking time apart will help our relationship. I do not want to get a divorce, but it may be unavoidable. I am still not sure of her intentions.
Throughout our marriage I have paid all of the bills (mortgage, gas, cable, phone, etc). We both hold full time jobs, and the only things she is responsible for is her car payment and groceries. We have always had seperate checking accounts and credit cards. I simply do not have any extra money to give her to move out, and really don't think I would give it to her if I had it.
What advice can this board give me? Is there anything I need to do to protect myself financially if things go bad? What are the alimony laws? Do I need to speak with a lawyer? |
