You may be entitled to one or more forms of alimony under Florida law. You leave out several important factors that an attorney would need to know in order to offer you an opinion of what type of spousal support you might be entitled to. Alimony is based upon your need and his ability to pay. Factors such as how long you have been married and how much your husband's makes are key factors. A complete analysis of the factors used to determine alimony under Florida Statue 61.08 cannot be done in an online forum. You need to consult with a qualified family lawyer to review the facts of your case and determine the likelihood of spousal support in your case.

Mr. Feuerstein gave good advice. I would also add that you should ask for whatever support you qualify for on a temporary basis. It is not unusual for contested divorces to take a year or more to complete. By seeking temporary relief, you can ask for support during the pendency of your case.

Whoever files for divorce, you need to file a Motion for a Temporary Needs. This will hopefully get you some help while the case is pending.

If he wants the divorce he will get it so you need to retain a lawyer and make a claim for alimony.
