What can you do about what? Immigration? The divorce?

I suggest you pay to confer privately with an experienced attorney at this time. Only a small subset of attorneys are knowledgeable and adept as to matters involving an interface of immigration law and divorce law (family law).

I agree with Attorney Dwyer. There are two issues; the process for removing conditions while a divorce is pending and the substance of case. The first deals with how to handle the I751 that is pending. The second deals with ensuring that CIS views your first marriage as one that is bona fide and not simply for an immigration benefit. This can be tricky while going through divorce proceedings. These two reasons plus others make hiring an attorney the best plan of action.
