In December I assisted my husband in refinancing the property we share to obtain a lower interest rate. My husband knows I am ill it was due to his neglegengce that a mva occurred that caused me to have perminent brain loss as well as several disabilities. I am currently on disability and he has not paid for any healthcare or my living expenses. When I was able to travel I would go from west tenneessee to joliet Il as often as I could. but my health does not warrant that currently. please help me

Re: divorce

You may also want to retain a local Illinois attorney to appear on your behalf. You don't really include enough information in your question to inform me regarding the underlying issue.
