    Exclamation How Much Spousal Support Can a Disabled Spouse Get After Divorce

    My question involves a marriage in the state of: Georgia. I am trying to find out what rights I have in my divorce. I have been married almost 4 years that majority of which I have been on disability. We have a child together . I am seeking a divorce because I found out that he was cheating on me and a few other personal family problems. Since I am on disability my check each month is based off of how much he brings home so would he be made to help support me and my son until the amount were to be reevaluated? Would he be required to pay anything other than child support after we were divorced? I dont want to do anything out of spite but I am trying to make sure that I have the means to ensure that my son is well taken care of.

    Default Re: Divorce ( Disabled and Child Custody)

    I take it you're on SSI? That will change once you lose Dad's financial support.

    Even though you're disabled, it's just not likely that he'll be ordered to pay spousal support outside of temporary support. Much depends on his income, too.

    If you get custody, he'll pay guideline child support.
