Re: divorce

This mostly depends on the facts of your situation. The main areas of concern include: custody/visitation, child support, and maintenance (alimony). Custody is not guaranteed to go to the woman - the judge determines this based on "best interest" of the child. Whomever receives primary custody is entitled to child support. Maintenance may be awarded if you cannot meet your reasonable living expenses on your own.

Beyond those general statements, it is all based on your particular circumstance.
