I guess it will depend on how much he earns. It’s usually a percentage of their wage

Oh. I dont know. In Australia, we have a government agency called ‘The Child Support Agency’ who deals with all that, and the figures are on their website. I dont know what your agency is called there, but I’m sure they will have a site that will have the figure you are looking for

You could consult a family law attorney. But you need to know that after a divorce, both partners are usually impoverished.

Please think long and hard before you go down this road. A divorce lawyer should be your last stop . . . never the first.
