My question involves a marriage in the state of:New York
My wife and I have come to an agreement to separate in the same house for a while.
If it does not work out she says she is leaving.
If she leaves with the kids or without the kids...., What are my rights to the kids and the property? What can I do now to protect my rights?

It would make sense for you to work with a divorce lawyer now, so you can be prepared to file for custody, visitation, protection of assets, or whatever it is you want to occur upon separation.
