Legal Question in Family Law in Tennessee

Divorce/pregnant/military

I was dating a guy for five years,

broke up with him, and he joined

the air force. I had gone into a

relationship with my present

husband and got pregnant by my

husband. My husband became

abusive, so we separated. Now,

months later and 23 weeks

pregnant, the airman and I got

back together. He is doing what

my husband should be doing as a

dad. Now my husband is saying

that the child is not his and I had

cheated with the airman from the

beggining and when the DNA test

shows my daughter is my

husband's, he is trying for full custody due to past depression

(no hospitalization, just medicated

for a short 6 mo trial) How do I

keep full custody of my daughter,

get divorced quickly and marry the

man I should have so long ago?

Re: Divorce/pregnant/military

Contact an attorney who does a lot of divorce work and hire him.

There is no way anyone could responsibly give you any advice on how to represent yourself on this, and you would be quite foolish if you tried.

Get an attorney. Let that attorney represent you. Follow that attorney's advice.

If you are in the Chattanooga area, give me a call and I will be happy to talk with you, but whereever you are, get someone quick.
