I am married for 4 yrs. and we dont have any kids. Things fall apart with our differences so we decided to file for divorce. Everything is smooth and we are in good terms. But my questions is will I be able to receive maintenance even if there's no children involved? Dont get me wrong,Im not after his money,I just want to start a new life and its only a matter of asking, whether there is or not.

It would also perhaps depend on what you did before you married ie did you give up a career by marrying, by going to HK with him? What asset distribution will there there be at divorce? You can seek mediation or try to sort out your differences yourselves however the divorce agreement is not a 'contract' as such and could be varied later should circumstances change ie you cohabitate/remarry or he has kids & remarries etc but any change later would need a court judgement to be formalised.
