If you don't know what you're doing with this basic piece of the case, the rest is going to be a very serious challenge for you...but use the Summons and Complaint.

I cannot afford a lawyer to help me

Contact the lawyer who filed these papers and explain that you want to contest the divorce but you can't afford a lawyer. Also contact the court where the case was filed. Try to look on the NYS bar association website and look for pro bono groups like inMotion or New York Legal Assisance Group. Good luck.

Notorized Divorce Agreement Not Filed

Morghan Leia Richardson
Answered by attorney Morghan Leia Richardson (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Richardson Legal PLLC
It sounds like you and he signed a separation agreement and if that was properly signed and executed before a notary, then it is a legally binding contract, regardless of whether it was filed. There could be other issues that might lead to a separation agreement being found invalid, but you would have to challenge the agreement. Regardless, issues involving custody or visitation are always subject to modification. Really, all of these issues are extremely complicated and you are better served lining up some attorneys to consult with, rather than trying to piece it together on an online Q&A forum. Good luck!
