The no fault law does not take effect until Oct. 15, but after then you will be able to get a divorce on the grounds of irreconcilable differences.
As to custody it would seem more likely that you would be able to have primary custody - but without a detailed examination of your and your husband's situations it isn't possible to be certain.
If you'd like to discuss your situation in detail, please feel free to get in touch.
