Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan
He want custody
My husband wants a divorce. We have 2 children ages 1 and 3 he wants the kids so he doesn't have to pay child support. I don't have a job because he didn't want me to work. Now he says he will get them because of that fact. I am a good mom and don't want to loose my boys. He says that he will do one week at my house and one week at his, I said no so now he says he will take me to court so he doesn't have to pay support. We are in the middle of building a new home and he doesn't want to finish it so I don't get any of the money when we sell. My realtor says that it will only sell for around $130,000 and we owe $160,000. What do I have to do to make sure I don't loose my boys? Please help me.

Re: He want custody
You need to hire an attorney as soon as possible. Your attorney can review your situation and give you some good, sound advice. Trying to help you based on the information you have provided via e-mail would not do your situation justice. Just to ease your mind, I can tell you that because you are not employed does not mean that you will not get custody. The court will determine what is in the best interests of the children based on numerous factors. Do not let him intimidate you.
Re: He want custody
Your husband doesn't know what he is talking about. Even if he manages to get joint physical custody, he is going to pay support. Furthermore, you need to see a good, reasonable family law lawyer. You can get one and the lawyer will get the fees from the estate and/or your husband. Don't put up with this! William S. Stern (Southfield, MI)
