Alimony after 6 year marriage
      02/10/07 12:58 PM

After a six year childless marriage, my wife claims that I will owe her rehabilitative alimony. She currently has a full time job that pays 50,000 a year, and she is voluntarly leaving it to move across the country.

My wife is also claiming that because I made a little more than half the amount of money she makes (only over the last two years), that that resulted in establishing a living standard that I will have to help her maintain once we get divorced. We do not live in a mansion, nor do we have even close to an extravagant lifestyle. We live in a one bedroom apartment and drive a Jetta, which is how we lived before we got married. In addition to this, because she claims that she is permantly disabled from a foot injury she got in the first week of our marriage, she is entitled to even more alimony.

Are her claims valid, even though she's proved that she's able to work despite any claimed disability? Is she entitled to any rehabilitative alimony, even though she has a degree from an elite college?

I know this is a long one. Tks
