Re: family divorce

You need to file for divorce and obtain sole custody of your child or joint legal custody with principal place of residence outside of the U.S. In respect to the house, to receive 1/2 the equity, you and your spouse would have to sell the house and split the equity or your spouse would have to buy you out, which might require refinancing. You are not automatically entitled to what you are seeking and you probably will need an attorney to help you. Feel free to call my cell phone to discuss this further 860.977.0660.
