What can I do if my husband and I own a home together and he wants me to move out?

The affairs and alcohol use have nothing to do with property division. As for your home, there are many considerations that you will need to discuss with counsel - for example, what was the source of the down payment for the home? Does either party have a separate property interest? Is there equity? Can either of you afford to buy out the other's interest? Can either of you afford the monthly payments (i.e., mortgage, HELOC, taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs, utilities) on your own? All of these considerations will allow you to make an informed choice about how you wish to proceed and I would suggest you NOT move out until you have at least consulted with an experienced family law attorney regarding these issues. This way, you will be aware of your rights and obligations and can make the best choice for yourself under the circumstances.

Division of property and debts is, first and foremost, a matter for you and your husband to discuss and attempt to reach a comprehensive agreement you both ;believe is fair and can both live with. If you agree, a court will simply accept your agreement and make it a court order. If you can't agree, a judge will have to decide what is a fair. There are no fixed rules for how you or the judge has to decide what is fair. The name on the title to property does not control what can or should happen to the property. If the property was acquired during the marriage, it is considered marital no matter whose name is on the title.

Can I file request for judgement myself for my divorce even though I was represented by the lawyer?

Fire your current attorney and hire a better one. Discuss you previous representation with your new counsel, the new attorney might ask to have your fees returned, or that you file a grievance with the Bar Association. As for the case itself, the file with the court should be reviewed to determine what the hang up is.
