MA divorce question

[mtemm]

not sure if anyone knows the answer to this. I know in CA there is a 10 year rule, where if the marriage is 10 years or more, more support is the norm. Does anybody know if the same is true in MA?

Are you talking about alimony or child support? Child support usually increases as the child(ren) enter different age groups. So if you're children are 10 or older, you'd likely get more than if they were younger. It all depends on what is in your divorce agreement. I don't know anything about alimony.

I just know Mass is a no fault state. Which I find kinda lousy

You really need to consult with a MA attorney. I know there are helpful websites which list divorce / support laws by state.
