Legal Question in Family Law in Connecticut

A friend of mine is getting divorced and she wants to make sure she fills out all the correct paperwork. She wants to know what she can fight for and what she is entitled to. She is thinking about getting alimony as well. They have been married for almost 10 years. Any advice you have as far as what to file and what to ask for would be a great help. Thank you!
