If you are getting a divorce after 17 years and you both make the same amount of money no property but she has an illness that requires her to take weeks off at a time can he be made to pay alimony? |

Answer
It's best to see a lawyer about this and the ex wife can get a friend (in writing and signed by a lawyer) to represent her divorce if she is too ill. Usually 1/2 of everything he owns (including his retirement fund) is hers. It will be up to a judge to decide just how much money she is bringing in, what type of medical she can afford HPO or PPO or if lucky, money is no object, or if she will need the financial help from her husband.
Good luck
