What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? OK
I am living in a Woman's Shelter in Dallas and have been since I left my husband 5 and half months ago. I have been trying to work, but have had trouble maintaining a job due to no real work history (housewife) and PTSD. I left and ran here back home after another attempt on my life an old friend told me to get out during the attack. Well now he has filed for divorce but I haven't received any papers. I know that he has placed an ad in the paper that ask for divorce. But it wasn't in my local paper only his. He knows that I am in dallas. I am trying to afford an attorney since legal aid won't help me because of his income. This comes before our 10 year anniversary. I had to leave everything behind and he destroyed my clothing right before he threw it at me. We had 2 cars when I left, but he refuses to give me one which would have helped. I asked for my things which are actually my mothers and he refused. He refused to even give me my winter coat. I don't know what I am entitled to. I have many health issues and need to have surgery in 8 weeks, due to the fact that he refused to let me go to the doctor when I was there. He is trying to cancel health insurance. Most of my health issues steam from neglect and abuse.
