Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia
I am hoping to file for divorce soon. I am pregnant but don't feel that he deserves to have any custody of the child. He does not help pay the medical bills, and has not been helpful since the day he found out I was pregnant. I also found out that he has been spending time with a girl that he cheated on me with last year while I'm at home sick. I am trying to figure out if this is possible.

Yes, I suppose your allegation regarding your husband's cheating on you
is quite possible, and I see no reason as to why you couldn't file for divorce
once you have met the requirements of Va. Code Sec. 20-91 which governs
the initiation of divorce in the Commonwealth.
