Amount of alimony and duration

I feel that the amount of alimony awarded to ex-wife wasn’t calculated correctly as well as the duration.

Awarded how?  After a trial?  In an Agreement prepared by another attorney that you signed?  If you agreed to something in writing it is a contract and you need to set the contract aside.  That is not an easy thing to do, especially if the divorce was granted.  You would then have to re-settle the Judgement of Divorce.  If you are not at that stage then propose changes.  Please seek legal help asap.
