Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania

physically seperated and spousal support

My husband left me deciding he does not want the baby. I am about three months pregnant. Do I need to file for divorce before I can go to domestics to apply for spousal support? I realize the child support part has to wait until the baby is born.

Re: physically separated and spousal support

From a litigation perspective it might be a good time to file for divorce. That way he's going to look like a heel when you show up at the DRO.

He must continue your medical coverage if he is currently providing it.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.
