My husband just decided he wants a divorce. And that he is going to fight me for the kids. But only 2 of them BC he didn't want a 3rd child ( I'm 3 months pregnant) So I'm looking for a good lawyer in the Philadelphia area.
I don't know what to do, I'm so numb right now.

What can I do next?

Hi E.

I don't have any good advice for lawyers, I just wanted to say that I can't imagine that any judge would consider giving custody to someone who one wants "some" of his children. He clearly has issues, take care of yourself and all of your babies.

I am so sorry to hear of your situation, my heart goes out to you. I have known personally and professionally a lawyer who immediately comes to mind. He is quiet, a good listener, extremely skilled and has good people skills. If for some reason he cannot take you on, he has been in the community for years and is well connected. He referred us out of state to a lawyer in Delaware who was wonderful. Andy Santana, Attorney at Law, with Fox Rothschild. ###-###-####; ____@____.com Please tell him E. Mordas sent you. Good luck. E.

I am sorry to hear about your situation. I have not had to deal with divorce lawyers in a long time, but one of the best in the area is Saul Solomon. My brother-in-law use to work for him and I have a former co-worker who used him for her divorce/custody issues. His info is: Solomon, Saul J - Swbs & F###-###-#### 522 Swede St, Norristown, PA 19401. His website is norristownlawyers.com there is a lot of info on the site that maybe helpful in deciding how to handle this. I wish you all the best of luck both with the baby as well as the divorce.

Dear E.

I don't quite know what to say. It is unbelievable that anyone can say they want some of their children and not the rest. They are not pets you pick and choose!! I can't see how any judge in his/her right mind would think he is fit to take on two children full time. You are an active capable mom who loves all her children (planed and unplaned) and so I think if you do managed to find a good lawyer you will be fine. I am sorry i don't have such a contact for you but i just wanted to tell you to hang in there and have faith in yourself as a mother. Tell your husband he is a self centered pig!!!

I was pregnant when me and my husband seperated and my son is now 5 months old. Long story short, i hired a lawyer and will get custody and he visitation. I am in the bensalem pa area, if you are from around there i will be more than happy to give you his number, just let me know. As for your situation, NO judge would ever split your children up EVER!!! Nor would a judge look at a father with admiration when he says i want 2 of my children but not the other or others!! Is he really that stupid?? No offense!! good luck!
