If social services knows that you are concerned for child abuse and hasn't done anything, it's probably because they can't. The laws are very specific as to what constitutes child abuse and what does not. If you feel that your child is in danger, you need to speak with your attorney and discuss going back to court to address the custody issue. You cannot "assume" full custody, or you would be in violation of the original court order. Call your attorney.

You now only have physical custody, but both you and your husband have equal custody rights to the child. That means he has a right to have physical custody too, and will not get into any trouble if he physically takes the child into his care. If you are afraid he might take the child, you will need to obtain a temporary custody order, signed by a judge, to make sure you become the custodial parent. That said, depending on your husband, the longer you have physical custody of the child, the more difficult it will be for your husband to obtain legal custody should you divorce.
