What is the name of your state? CA

My wife wants to divorce me and wants to know how much I will give her for child support of our 3 yr old girl. What is a fair amount to give to ex-wife for child support?

Another question: We have been married for over 6 years. What should I give her for spousal support? She has no income and no special skills. I'm a professional.

Thanks in advance.

Use google to find a child support calculator for CA. Input the appropriate numbers to find out what you would most likely be ordered to pay.

You haven't given NEARLY enough information to assist in determining whether spousal support would even be ordered, let alone for us to help you assess what would be fair.

You shouldn't give her any amount .

Any amounts you give her without a Court order would be seen as gifts , and you could find yourself paying again .

Consult a divorce Attorney for a small fee first .
