Get the Attorney General involved so that she can get child support from this looser.

Since he is already married, there is no common law marriage.

There is nothing she can do about selling her vehicle and purchasing a new one. Is her name on the title to the Jeep?

She needs to keep copies of all her prenatal bills. When the baby is born, she can ask that he reimburse her and begin paying child support for the new baby.

If she wants a brief consultation, I charge $100 for an hour.
