  • With a good lawyer if the husband has not cheated, but the wife has then this can be used against her, but has to be proven and it does not necessarily mean she will not get half of what the husband owns. If she is found to be an unfit mother as far as not looking after any children; drug use (including being an alcoholic) or having parties in the home on a constant basis while any children are present are reasons to effect the divorce on the side of the husband.
Answer

United States

In most jurisdictions infidelity by either party doesn't affect a divorce. Women are not particularly punished for their infidelity since that would be discriminatory. In states were infidelity is a grounds for divorce it is rarely used and likely will not impact division of assets, child support, custody or visitations. Some judges may be subtly influenced by infidelity by either party when dividing marital assets. Many states now have no-fault divorce and in those states it would have no impact whatsoever since it would not be mentioned.
