Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia

Re: preexisting illness

That would be decided by the court during the divorce proceeding. The fact that he has been committing adultery would help your case to receive more support.

Re: preexisting illness

I am not sure what jurisdiction you reside in. However, in the Atlanta area, if you had not been employed outside the home during the marriage, your husband would more than likely pay alimony. If your husband has a retirement or 401K, you would also be entitled to a share of his retirement and and equitable division of all other assets. I would urge you to speak with an attorney before you agree to anything. Speaking with an attorney who can review all issues of assets and debts, may relieve some of your concerns. Don't let your spouse tell you what he will and won't do - he may be surprised by what a judge will tell him he will and won't do.
