Are you attempting to prove the adultery to obtain a divorce or to help you in the financial aspect of the breakup?  You no longer have to prove "fault" in a marriage to get divorced.  However, proving that the spouse asking for financial support was responsible for the break up of the marriage can help you avoid paying support. If there is no direct evidence - like her admission - then you may need to do a little investigating to find witnesses or records of liasons like hotel registries.  A lawyer in the area would best help you set down what you need to prove under the law there  Good luck.
