I want to divorce my wife due to serious problems, including physical abuse. She threatens to take our child to her country. How can I protect myself and ensure my child stays in the country?

I am a tenant at River Trails apartments and have experienced multiple issues such as mold, rats, sewage, flooding, disabled air conditioning, and a falling ceiling since T.E.H Realty took over. I've been unable to contact the leasing office for over a month, and I don't want to break my lease but feel I need to leave due to the unsafe conditions.
