Legal Question in Family Law in Maryland

husband just moved out

My husband left me a note and said he does not love me anymore and moved out. I think he has returned to a woman he was hving an affair with. I work parttime and have teenager over 18 living at home. I cannot afford to pay the bills. What recourse do I have at this point? Can he be made to provide money for the house payment in both our names and other bills? What should I do? I am being hounded for payments.

Re: husband just moved out

You should immediately seek a legal separation through the courts. The court will determine whether spousal support is warranted; however, from the limited information presented, it sounds like he will have to contribute. Feel free to conatct me if I can be of assistance.
