A: You need to contact an experienced family law attorney to help you with your case. I'm sorry for all that you have been through. There probably will not be a monetary settlement for the last 14 years, but you can at least end the marriage and move forward.

A: Not likely an alimony case. If he is in another state, you need to file where he lives.
