Legal Question in Family Law in Georgia
Duress
If my husband is from another country and he tells me if I divorce him he will take our child and leave the united states and I will never see my son again. Is this duress? Or what law does this fall under?

Re: Duress
Your question isn't the one you should be asking. What your husband says matters very little. What IS important is if you are facing a divorce you NEED a lawyer - now. See one to protect your interests.

It falls under "get a lawyer now if you are considering a divorce." Wondering about the correct terms or laws won't prevent or solve the real issue.
