Re: My Rights

Hello. With regard to the

latest incident in which your

husband got hurt, if your

husband has not filed a

criminal complaint against

you, you probably do not have

to worry and this should not

affect your divorce case. It

is important that you seek

help from a local agency that

can assist you with legal

services on a regular basis.

Your husband needs to be paying child support and the court might award you maintenance.

Get legal help now. Check

with the local bar association

for a list of legal clinics

in your area. Good luck!!
