Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
Child Custody & Seperation
Want to seperate from husband, not divorce. Have two year old I want to have custody of her. He is drinking heavily and she does not need to be with him. We have been married 9.5 years, drinking started a year ago when laid off from work. Has since started new job and anti depressants, I'm hoping will get better thus not wanting divorce yet.

Re: Child Custody & Seperation
Texas does not have legal separation.
Therefore, you must file for a divorce in Texas.
Good luck!
