My sister just got divorced after 10 years of marriage. The poor son of a bitch has to pay her this ridiculous alimony payment till he retires (in 9 years) and then she gets 30% of his pension...FOR LIFE! And he has to cover her heath insurance... FOR LIFE!!
Check your local alimony laws before you jump into anything.

My divorce lawyer was expensive, but she was worth every penny. A good lawyer will cost you way less than half your shit and alimony and child support. A really good lawyer gets you custody of the kid, no alimony, and a judgement against the ex for the legal fees they brought as well
Of course, being a decent human being and an outstanding father plays a lot into that. The courts aren't going to reward a piece of shit person, even with a good attorney.
