Default Re: Im Getting Divorced... Can Anyone Help

You will probably not have to pay alomony, but child support will be a large number. It is based on your income, and her income, and the amount of custody you have of the child. I went through this at age 24, and it hurt. You may lose the home, or have to buy her out of the home, which will cost you a lot. LAwyer fees will be about 2-5K. Does your wife work? My buddy has to pay 2500 a month, and makes about 120K per year. He has 40-60 custody of his daughter, and his ex wife makes about 30K per year. This gives you an idea of what you are looking at. Every state is different, but it all comes down to how much you make and how much time you have your child. There are online child support calculators, and the tend to be pretty acurate.
