Alimony question-looking for suggestions!?

she sounds like a real peach!

I would let her know that she is a selfish C_NT! Check your phone book for a number on legal aid, your state should offer you some sort of assistance due to your finances at this current time. They will give you legal advice and sometimes they will have lawyers represent you, I know that a lot of attorney's dedicate their free time and provide this service to the community.

No children live with her whatsoever? I wouldn't have paid alimony as long as you have. One year if they do not have custoday, they have one year to get their act together and do the right thing, work like the rest of us. You sir are a scholar and a gentlemen. I cannot believe what an evil woman she is, and continues to be. Good luck!

I can definately appreciate where you are coming from. It sounds like you do need to go to court and have your case reexamined which is needed in alot of cases because circumstances change. I don't understand why, if your children live with you, and your income has decreased considerably, you ex would feel that she deserves 800.00 per month from you. Honestly, I don't think she should get anything for alimony. Child support is a different matter altogether but if you are not married anymore and haven't been for five years...she needs to figure out some other way to get free money. Just my opinion of course.

You would qualify for free legal services, and can get an attorney to speed up the process and advocate for you! If you go to abanet.org, you can get a list of every Legal Services center by state. If you call your local legal services office, you'll be surprised by how quickly you can get an attorney and in court. Best of luck.

One way could be to "pay" the alimony to a trust account for your children and get child support payments that way. Be sure to document all child related expenses.

Or you could not pay anything and ask the judge at your next trial date. She can wait.

call your state reps and congressmen and attorny gen
