I don't know since your temp alimony is set at 500 a month. Mine was set at 400 a week from the beginning. Our incomes are about the same as yours only I make the 24 and he makes the 75.we were married 27 years. If I were you I would get a good lawyer. If you have a lawyer it doesn't sound like he is fighting for you interest very hard. believe me my X isn't happy at all about this but I wasn't to happy when he got a girlfriend and tore our family apart. The price of freedom is not cheep. I tell my X that alimony is the screwing he gets for the screwing he got.
