Re: leaving
Your situation is dependent on many factors to numerous to discuss here. Family law matters are also fact sensitive. If you leave with the children either you or your husband could file a petition for custody. It would be up to the court to decide what is in the best interest of the children regarding custody. You should consult with a attorney regarding your situation. If you would like to schedule a consultation with my office you may contact me.
