Separated from H 6 months ago and he has been paying me £1000 per month as maintenance towards our 3 DCs. Out of this comes our mortgage payment of about £700, so I effectively get £300 per month for everything else.
I'm being given various peoples' opinions and what I'm not sure about is whether he should also be paying anything further on top of this. It's not that I don't think he is paying me enough necessarily, just that I'd like to get a better idea of what I am entitled to.
We haven't gone down the solicitor route so far and I am not asking him for any spousal maintenance, but he has recently said he may have to reduce his payments to me. Don't know why. He earns in excess of £60K!
Thoughts welcome please.
