Need to Find a Lawyer...

Boy do I know how you feel. I'm going through the same thing as you. I found an attorney Named Booth. He worked with me on the retainer and has been great. My ex actually took my daughter and is refusing any contact. I'm a good mom who does nothing but work and take care of my childern and he is doing this out of spite. Mr Booth dropped the retainer by 1000.00 for me and I'm confident he is going to help me get my daughter back. Let my know if you are interested. I will pass the number along to you.

First, you are not the only one to ever have this happen. And second, if the attorney will take credit cards for the retainer, and you have a joint credit card, use that. Any bills you have jointly while married (and you still are) are joint responsibility. If he makes more money then you can possibly get alimony and you'll have a higher amount of child support due to you as well. This is a tough time, and it's nice to have a lawyer who can deal with this stuff and not be emotional about it. It's not fun, but you'll get through it and life will go on. And remember, this is just my opinion...take care.

Hello S.,
My name is M. and I feel about the way you do also. I share a 13 year old with my husband a (a)hole of a passive aggressive the worst. We have been married almost 20 years and I am ready for him to leave our home but we are onsite property managers and work together as well as live together it sucks!! I really found the coolest magizine at fantastic sams it is called divorce edition. Check it out it has numbers and names of divorce options for all walks and good luck. M.

Dear S.,
I am sorry to hear about this. I know from first hand experience what you are going through and I understand your frustratrions. The Attorney I used is Kenneth Brock. He was wonderful and reasonable. His retainer was $1,000.00 and he does take payments. The contract is on his terms but I feel he is fair. His number is ###-###-####. I hope this helps you. Hang in there and if you need to talk outside of this website we can exchange e-mails or phone numbers.
Best of Luck,
L.
P.S. I agree 100% with Diana, do not leave that house!!! If he gets abusive or anything even remotely close, you call the police. You have rights, lots of them!

I am so sorry that you are going through this. I was recently referred to this lawyer and was told she takes payments. I have not spoken with her directly but she was highly recommended.
It's worth a call anyway: Her name is Jennifer Holt ###-###-####.
I wish you the best and hang in there!

S.,
I am sorry to hear your husband has sprung such a situation on you. It can be difficult, but know there is help out there. First, if your husband is asking YOU to leave, he is out of his mind!!! You are a mother of 3, which are you main priority. If he is the major bread winner, then he is the one who needs to move out. Second, you can contact your local women's advocacy group where they will help guide you in the direction for financial and legal assistance. I am not sure which county you are in, but if you do a google search for the women's advocacy group, that should be of some help. I know you are scared and hurt by such a sudden announcement, but know your kids are what are important and your husband will survive.

Dear S.,

I just wanted to let you know that you are not alone.

I have been arguing with my son's biological father for almost a year now. He refuses to provide me with any of his information.

I only have one child and he is almost 18 months and it is scary enough for me and I do not have to live with my ex.

If you need an ear to talk to or a someone to vent frustration to give me a buzz through email.

Good luck!

P.S. Thank you to the other mothers that have provided numbers for lawyers. I have need one as well; I think I will try them as well. :)

Hi S.,

Well I do not have a lawyer for you but I do have a little advice being divorced myself. DO NOT move out of the house just because he says so and makes more money. You being the mom and having the kids and being with him as long as you have married or not, you have more legal rights than you may think.
Even if a lawyer is expensive, at least get a consultation because I guarantee they would tell you the same thing. You can work with a paralegal to do the paperwork, it's a little cheaper but talk with a lawyer for sure because your husband sounds like just from the little you've wrote will try and get one over on you and intimadate the situation.
