[quote=Anonymous]what you need more than any advice you can get on DCUM is a divorce lawyer who is familiar with substance abuse. I am in the DC area and when I started asking around, the same 3-4 names kept coming up, along with the same therapists and custody supervisors etc - its a pretty small community of experts. Absent a legal record like DUIs or restraining orders it is unlikely you will get any special protections due to his drinking, so it probably will be just like any other divorce (split the assets, split custody, unless you both agree to something different). but if you are concerned about him caring for your kids the right lawyer might have ideas. good luck.[/quote]
