Then she is moving out. Hopefully it is a "trial" sepperation. They have ONE infant child. He is the Major "bread winner". Short of telling him not to do it, Is there a leagle paper they should sign ?

He can't close the account without her signiture if it is a joint account. She has his child and so he should make sure there is enough money for her to be able to provide for the son. If he doesn't and she takes him to court the judge will look down upon this action as evidence of his unwillingness to be responsible and could really put the hammer to him in the child support/alimony area. Seperated is not Divorced and as such she is still legally entitled to 1/2 of everything.

well they can have a paper drawn up and signed by a noteiry or something as to how things was divided and what is expected as in support and custody and visitation and well everything they are agreeing on and if its only for a certain time period they need to state that. so if it ends in divorce u have a time limit n things can change up . or someone cant come back later and say..oh no i didnt agree to that or it was only suppose to be for so long. things in writtin and noted by a notery is a sure way to keep a copy of what was agreed upon..dont trust the other person at all. no agreements with just words. if u think of it, write it down n get it notierized

When a marriage brakes up it is essential to seek legal help. Your friend must get a divorce lawyer to sort out the finances and obvious custody issues.
Without legal guidance there will be a lot of problems in the future for both of them and this child.
Best of luck to all.

Tell her she is free to leave and that HE will keep the child.
Don't let him let the child go, because if he doesn't fight for his right to parent his child now, he will probably lose it.
Courts go with the status quo, so if he doesn't seek an emergency custody ruling now, he can lose daily access to his child.

Why on earth would you tell him not to do it? What a very selfish thing for you to say? Do you not want this child clothed, fed, clean, sheltered, educated? What is wrong with you?

Your friend should not sign anything their attorney has not read. Chances are, if the guy is the "bread winner", he may have hidden assets elsewhere.
Have your friend contact her attorney, TODAY!!

Sign nothing without first consulting a lawyer, or you'll be sorry.
