I can see where his wife was entitled to a share of the marital assets since they were built up during their marriage (they were married in 1993, well before Amazon was a thing). There is a difference between marital assets and ongoing support.

Child support should be limited to what it costs to half-raise a child in a middle-class household (maybe a couple hundred dollars per kid per month), not the system we currently have that uses child support to punish the non-custodial parent (usually the man) for not keeping the marriage/relationship together. $2 million for child and spousal support (which almost shouldn’t exist — if she can’t afford to support herself then she needs to stay married — other than a case where her spouse committed grave acts of domestic violence against her) is ridiculous even in the most egregious of cases! It is not the moral responsibility of someone like Avenatti to maintain his ex in the same manner she lived during the marriage, if spousal support is called for at all it should be limited to $2500 per month and that only for a year or two.

How does Avenatti think he does not owe child support for his kid? He must think he is a rapper.
