Nobody can answer that question without knowing more. Find an attorney for a free consultation. Don't sign anything except the acceptance of service of the divorce complaint. You may be eligible for support/alimony or part of his assets or pension.

A divorce can be granted based on mutual consent (both sign), or on the grounds of irretrievable breakdown and a 2 year separation, which could be without the Defendant's consent. In either case, the court can divide marital property, or award alimony. It is important to assert these rights before the divorce becomes final.
