CAN AN UNEMPLOYED MOTHER GET CHILD CUSTODY?

I frequently receive questions from people regarding their family law issues. The following is a question which the inquirer agreed may be publicly revealed, and my answer to the question:

QUESTION: Can I get child custody with no job? My husband is trying to control my every move. I want to leave but he said if I leave, I can't take my son because I don’t have a job. Could I get custody?

ANSWER: Having a job is not a prerequisite for getting child custody. A lot of homemakers are custodial parents. You should consult and preferably retain an experienced Family Law Attorney to represent you in your divorce and child custody case. You should be able to get child custody, child support, spousal support, your 50% share of community property, and an order for payment by your husband of a significant contributory share of your attorney's fees in your divorce case.
