What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? WA
While I was stationed in WA, my spouse filed for a divorce and took my children to CA. This has been 2.5 years. I have been paying spousal and child support, along with medical and car payments. I have relocated to DE and really want to settle the divorce, but she refuses. She does not allow me to speak to my children, she tells me that I am obligated to pay her medical coverage after the divorce. I have very little money to live on, let alone get an attorney.. She has since had a heart attack. She continues to smoke and makes my oldest child tend to the younger ones. I have stated to a guardian ad litem that I would like to seek custody, but nothing has been done, as of yet. I have had two visits- one in 11/07 for 5 days, and one 7/08 for 2 weeks. While in WA, she had incurred debts in my name that are now jeopardizing my military career of 18 years. The debts are in arrears and on my credit report preventing me from obtaining loans to payoff my share of the debts. I'm seeking advice on how to end this divorce promptly. My spouse cannot work or take care of my kids physically and I am very concerned. HELP
