Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.
It depends on if he wants a divorce too. If he does then do the paperwork yourself and save yourself a ton of money. If he doesn't get a lawyer and be ready for an exhausting fight to legally destroy your marriage.

You should be able to get in touch with a Legal Aid society near you, or some such agency, I'm not certain what you have in your state or area. They can at least direct you toward someone with expertise in FAMILY law, which is what you will need. You are completely within your rights to choose the lawyer YOU want on your side. I would counsel to choose someone you get on with well, who you feel is thinking most from your perspective, who you can trust is thinking in ways similar to yourself.
Practical things you can do in the meantime:
*get your cell phone, or A cell phone in your name, if you don't already
*open a bank account in your own name, again is you don't already
*begin keeping a journal of his actions, especially if there are children involved, specifically regarding his time with them and the nature and essence of their visits.
*get people around you who are supportive, trustworthy and healthy to be advisors and get loving support
*keep a spare set of car keys, house keys and any pertinent documents (birth certificate, copy of your driver's license, social security card or number) in a safe place NOT in your home. Keep it somewhere immediately accessible if you need them in a hurry, like at a trusted friend's home, or at your workplace.
