Legal Question in Legal Ethics in Georgia

My husband is mentally suffering, not just from my observations , but by his own family's admission, and by admission from his own mouth. He has abandoned me and our unborn child, he habitually, pathologically lies, and makes up things all of the time like and I have provided evidence to prove to him he's lying and he keeps up with the lie. He recently quit his job and we now have no financial means of support. He doesn't read the mail, he controls me because he only will allow me to wear certain items of clothing, and does not give me money to help myself or to by things for our unborn child. He's been depressed off and on for months now. He wears my old wigs and keeps them hid away so that I can not find them. He even jumped out of a moving vehicle. What can I do to protect me and my baby, as well as him from himself?

You can do what you should have done before now -- get off the internet where no one here can stand between you and your husband, and call a lawyer today. Asking questions on the internet indicates it is not serious problem or threat for you or your child.

You posted in an area of Law Guru where few divorce lawyers will even see your question, as you asked the question in an area that deals with legal malpractice and complaints about lawyers. You will get more useful information posting in the divorce area.

The bottom line is you cannot do anything online. You need to get a divorce attorney to pursue whatever relief you may think you need.
