Re: Divorce
You have a factualy issue to be sorted out, it's not so much legal rules that make the custody clear. If you are both interested in being parents, there will be joint legal custody. If your schedule and availability is more favorable than hers, that gives you the advantage in getting primary custody. In terms of rent, whose on the lease? Your divorce doesn't change the lease agreement or the landlord's rights, so if you want out, you remain obligated under the terms of the terms of the lease. If you are month-to-month, you need to give 30-days notice to the landlord. As between you and your wife, you have child and spousal support issues.
