I'm not sure what took so long for him to send those papers. I feel insulted that he hits me, abuses our son, cheats on me and I get served? I want to put that it is over because he abused me. I'm not sure what to do. I live in Ottawa. All the layers are expensive legal aid is not helping me. He signed them on June 29 but got them today. He didn't even tell me that they are coming my way like a coward.
I am very sorry that you and your son have been through so much mental and physical torture. I am not very sure about the law in Canada but there are national hotlines for domestic violence and women's rights groups that you can approach for your case. Are you planning to contest the divorce? In that case, you will need a good lawyer to reach an agreement that is fair and beneficial for you and your son.
