Do you think I can receive alimony?

In a divorce case, the pension is a marital asset to be split 50/50 if all earned while your wife was married. Spousal support depends on a showing of need.

From what you have provided, I doubt that you would be entitled to post divorce alimony under Chapter 8 of the Texas Family Code. To qualify, you must show that you lack the resources to provide for your basic minimal needs, which is a very high standard if you are receiving any monthly income at all.

This is all considered when equitable distribution is done in the divorce. Discuss this with your attorney.

A lot of this will depend on the need for alimony, what kind of alimony and the ability to pay. NRS 125.150 states in part: 8. In addition to any other factors the court considers relevant in determining whether to award alimony and the amount of such an award, the court shall consider: (a) The financial condition of each spouse; (b) The nature and value of the respective property of each spouse; (c) The contribution of each spouse to any property held by the spouses pursuant to NRS 123.030; (d) The duration of the marriage; (e) The income, earning capacity, age and health of each spouse; (f) The standard of living during the marriage; (g) The career before the marriage of the spouse who would receive the alimony; (h) The existence of specialized education or training or the level of marketable skills attained by each spouse during the marriage; (i) The contribution of either spouse as homemaker; (j) The award of property granted by the court in the divorce, other than child support and alimony, to the spouse who would receive the alimony; and (k) The physical and mental condition of each party as it relates to the financial condition, health and ability to work of that spouse. 9. In granting a divorce, the court shall consider the need to grant alimony to a spouse for the purpose of obtaining training or education relating to a job, career or profession. In addition to any other factors the court considers relevant in determining whether such alimony should be granted, the court shall consider: (a) Whether the spouse who would pay such alimony has obtained greater job skills or education during the marriage; and (b) Whether the spouse who would receive such alimony provided financial support while the other spouse obtained job skills or education. 10. If the court determines that alimony should be awarded pursuant to the provisions of subsection 9: (a) The court, in its order, shall provide for the time within which the spouse who is the recipient of the alimony must commence the training or education relating to a job, career or profession. (b) The spouse who is ordered to pay the alimony may, upon changed circumstances, file a motion to modify the order. (c) The spouse who is the recipient of the alimony may be granted, in addition to any other alimony granted by the court, money to provide for: (1) Testing of the recipient's skills relating to a job, career or profession; (2) Evaluation of the recipient's abilities and goals relating to a job, career or profession; (3) Guidance for the recipient in establishing a specific plan for training or education relating to a job, career or profession; (4) Subsidization of an employer's costs incurred in training the recipient; (5) Assisting the recipient to search for a job; or (6) Payment of the costs of tuition, books and fees for: (I) The equivalent of a high school diploma; (II) College courses which are directly applicable to the recipient's goals for his or her career; or (III) Courses of training in skills desirable for employment.

You have a fair opportunity.
