Expert Advice When You Need It Most

What rights do I have to see or speak to my kids although I don't live in the U.S

Asked over 2 years ago - Houston, TX

When my wife and I split she had me deported. We are still legally married and she doesn't allow my kids to visit or speak to me. She has since moved from where we originally lived in Texas, I suspect that she has moved to one of her sisters in Maryland. My question is 2 parts. How do I go about getting divorce and What rights do I have to see or speak to my kids. Thank you very much for your time.

If your wife is now in Maryland, any suit for divorce would be brought there, assuming she met the domicile requirements in Maryland. You can initiate the suit, but you will need first to determine where she is and find a lawyer in that locale to assit you.
