Alaska relies on “equitable distribution” so the court will distribute the marital property “in an equitable manner” if the parties can’t agree on their own. Separate property (property acquired prior to the marriage, as a gift or through inheritance) is not included in property distribution.
Alimony may be awarded to either party and is at the discretion of the judge. While the judge is not required to consider fault when determining alimony, the conduct of the parties can be a factor in the decision process.

If you married your spouse while he was in the military am I entitled to any benefits after divorce? Also should I seek any alimony if we have been seperated for years but he makes almost 80,000 a year more than me and has many assets?
