Divorce Support Forums: adultery

Unlike child support, spousal support is often very difficult (if not impossible) to modify after the divorce is final, so getting it right the first time is a must!

adultery
#153629 - 11/10/07 08:22 PM (75.202.29.121)

does anyone know if you get more for spousal support under the grounds of adultery ( I live in South Carolina)? Also, what forms of proof is required by the courts...other than PI.

Usually no but it can effect the final property settlement depending on where you live .

thanks answer guy. I live in South Carolina and I have been told that proof will greatley increase the amount at a divorce hearing. Why are the PI's in business if this does not matter in the courts?

You need a PI OR a disinterested 3rd party to prove adultery . Fault would have more of an affect on the person asking for alimony , a lesser or no award if the person requesting it were at fault for the break-up of the marriage . Fault is a consideration for whether or not support is ordered but shouldn't really effect the amount but it COULD effect the duration of any award . The amount depends more on the assets/income of the person that would be required to pay .

Could this PI be the same person whom the woman had paid to arrange for a "prostitute" to seduce her husband? If not, could the "disinterested party" be someone like a motel clerk who observed the behavior of this phony prostitute and her "mark", who's wife was paying for him to be set up for a big score in divorce court?

I thought this kind of vileness went out with the advent of no-fault divorce, and was one of the main arguments for it!
