My sister is getting divorced. If it turns out her husband has been cheating on her...?

Nowadays, legally, in most states, it does not matter if the spouse cheated or not. There are divorces called "no-fault" divorces. That means "cheating" and other issues don't come into play.

If they had a prenuptial agreement, and cheating was mentioned, then yes, the cheating would come into play as a reason for the desolation of the marital bond, and the prenuptial agreement would cover any extra amounts owed to the spouse that was cheated on.

Child support and alimony are separate issues altogether, and have nothing to do with the cheating spouse / amount to be paid to the spouse that was cheated on

They use a scale for the child support - it is the same scale for everyone (usually biased towards the mother and leaving the father a pauper).

The alimony is sometimes approved until the wife remarries or goes to school and gets a job. It is not mean to last forever.

Otherwise, there is no difference than any other divorce.

Divorce is a court process to legally end a marriage. In Colorado, divorce is called "dissolution of marriage" and court papers use the term dissolution of marriage instead of divorce. Colorado uses a no-fault divorce standard that does not require that one of the spouses prove blame or responsibility in order to end the marriage. The only question for the court when a "standard" marriage is involved is whether the marriage is "irretrievably broken," meaning that there is no reasonable chance that the spouses want to keep the marriage together.

i live in Denver and yes she could get more if it were proved. You would need a kick A*s lawyer and some proof. but yeah it possible here. happens all the time... marriage , beside the knowing its for love, in the laws eyes is a "contract" cheating is a break in that said contract. and she would get monies due to her in the divorce. law states just cuz marriage is no more his ability to provide for kids, house financial, and her well being is still his obligation. But if she gets remarried his obligation stop and he pays no more. .

Divorce is no fault. Which means, that there is no extra money awarded if one spouse is cheating. Unless there are children involved, then this would be something different, called "child support".

.

No she couldn't get any extra money. And honestly she shouldn't. Yes cheating is bad and wrong, but it's no reason to leave a person, man or woman, broke and with no means to support themselves.

call "cheaters" for free investigation...you only have to pay if your wrong.
