Is my success a disadvantage when getting a divorced?

Unfortunately, the short answer is yes. There are four parameters that are discussed when getting a divorce: division of assets, child support, child custody, and spousal support. Also, in 2013, case law came down that would entitle the spouse that makes less money to attorney’s fees if requested. If you are the more successful spouse, it makes more sense to try and work things out amicably if possible.
