Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia

Have been married for 7 years, have young child. Have been a stay at home mom and/or full - time student since child was born. Husband had much better credit than I did, so both our current townhouse and previous condo were solely in his name. I have asked repeatedly for my name to be added, if for no other reason than to protect myself and my child if he and i should divorce (there is a chance we are headed in the direction). He has sais it is "on his list" of things to do - for the past three years! How do I protect myself and my child? I am a full-time graduate student, and cannot work a retail job because of three, inoperable herniated discs in my lower back. (this is all I am currently qualified to do)
What do I do? I don't want to divorce my husband, but I have to be prepared for the worst. Thank you.
PS....I am faced with the same question about our cars, but there are other issues with them.

Hire attorney to prepare paperwork and hand it to him. You make time if it is worth your effort.

Good luck. Attorney Shane. Web: www.sherylshanelaw.com.
