You are not necessarily entitled to anything. Entitled is probably the incorrect word in this scenario. Without any facts surrounding the case it's hard for me to give you an idea of what you are looking at as it relates to custody and/or any other marital issues. I would suggest, if possible, contacting an attorney and visiting with them. It appears that you've already had a temporary hearing regarding custody so you may have already retained someone. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

It is not possible to give you a clear legal answer to your inquiry without a more detailed evaluation of the facts of your case. Divorce law is reasonably complicated, and your property, maintenance, and custody rights may vary, dependent upon your individual situation. A lawyer will want to review the complete details of your and your husband's finances.
You are best advised to seek the services of a competent Kentucky attorney. You can telephone your local bar association for a referral, or can find a good lawyer on-line at the Kentucky Bar Association's Lawyer Referral Service:
