My husband of 4 years left me back in nov 2015 to move back to his home state of
texas, he basically abandoned me, i had no job at the time and no car and the car
he was driving when the engine blew up…..he left me with 100 before he left
then after for about 3 months NOTHING…..i had to call and basically beg for
some money, just found out this morning over the phone from him that he’s seeing
another woman……do i qualify for financial support from him? and does he have
to furnish me with a vehicle?

There is free legal assistance to individual who qualify; many agencies/groups provide these services. Legal Aid is one, so contact them. Also, can check to see if there is a law school in your area; they run free/low cost clinics that handle divorces. Additionally, you can contact your state/county/city bar association to see if they have a list of lawyers who will take your case for free or at least for a reduced fee. Further, you can check for women's support groups online and see if one can provide the names of attorneyss who can help you. Finally, you can contact your local Department of Social Services in your area to see if it can refer for free legal advice.
