Good evening,
I'm a french canadian (born in quebec) and I got married in a Michigan court 6 years ago. I Have 2 children with my husband but he wants to seperate or file for a divorce. He told me he already has a lawyer helping him. I don't. We are seeing a couple therapist right now but he wants to stop this therapy. My husband says I am bipolar but our therapist says I had a postpartum depression 2 years ago (my son is 3 years old). He is upset with the diagnostic of the therapist and he doesn't want to see him anymore. He wants to separate.
What should I do now considering the fact that all my family is in Quebec so I have no support in Michigan? Should I call a lawyer? Does he have the right to kick me out of my house like this? Who will have the custody of our children? I am a stay at home mother ( I have never worked since I have mooved in Michigan) Should I get a Canadian attorney or an american one? If we get a divorce and I have the custody of the children, would I be able to go back in my Country with the kids? Does he need to authorize it?
Please someone tell me where to start so I don't make any mistakes.
Thanks.
