Can I Sue the Cheater for Alienation of Affection?

:evil: No, you cannot sue the cheater, either the spouse or the paramour, for alienation of affection (taking the loved one away from you).  In some States, you may be able to do that, but not in Ohio.  Your exclusive remedy is to sue the cheater for divorce, or to sue for custody (if applicable).   If you are not married, you may be able to sue to divide jointly owned property.   If a spouse or partner has cheated on you, please contact an attorney for advice before doing anything to retaliate.
