My friend is out of money and must go Pro se' His stbx wants maintenance for life. She worked most of the time they were married but stopped when the third child was born. When back to work three years ago part time. The divorce has been draging on almost three years. She keeps firing her lawyers. So bottom line youngest is 9 going on ten she has been working part time for three years out of work for six. The marrage would have been 17 years but the last three have been a divorce nightmare. In Illinois what may he be facing for maintenance and child support
Also what points may he use to prove she can work and earn a living. She claims she can't but she has a work record. He has no problem paying CS.
