law help: My husband hit me in the the head 3 times while I was driving. - Help.com

My husband hit me in the the head 3 times while I was driving.

I made him mad by disagreement. He is always emotionally abusive, but will deny all of it because he is afraid he won’t get to see our one year old daughter. I am afraid to get a divorce because his family has money and I am afraid of him getting 50/50 custody. He would fight for as much custody as possible, but he doesn’t spend much time with her now. And I don’t want her to have to stay with him without me there any more than she has to. What should I do? What happens when a husband lies about abuse?

You need to report the abuse when it happens; that will make it less likely that he will be able to get custody

photograph bruises, record incidents of emotional abuse, write everything down, file police reports. gather as much evidence as possible, and he wont get custody.

Yes, you need to keep record of everything that was said, done to you - keep a journal of events, just because he denies it doesn’t make it the truth.

warm blessings. I want to encourage you and let you know that I think you are a strong woman!
