It all depends on the two parties but you can have an amicable divorce without having to argue in court. Usually you divide the assets acquired during the marriage but it can be more or less depending on the agreement.Inazuma wrote:And if things don't work out later, instead of having a fair breakup where each person keeps their own stuff, they have to spend more money, argue in divorce court and eventually someone (almost always the man) gets fucked over and has to give the other person tons of money and alimony.
As for alimony, keep in mind that the other party may have stayed home with the kids for 20+ years. Do you think that it would be fair to that person to not get any sort of alimony?
