Any help is very appreciated.EDIT: this is op, thank you all so much my mother is grieving right now and if worse comes to worse I will help her come in contact with a lawyer for division of property. Thank you all so much.  <response>: Be prepared for a HUGE hit to your standard of living. Even with punitive amounts of alimony and child support, there just isnt going to be as much money. Youre going to have to get used to going without things, having lower cost options, and may even have to move to a smaller house.Having said all that, you will get through it.
