After being married for 25 years, what I am entitled to?

My spouse has cheated on me numerous times. I forgave him and always thought he would do better. The last straw came recently when he blantly told my nephew’s wife that he finds her very attractive. She is only 24 and he is 49. He has humiliated me for the last time. I am on disability and only get around $650 per month. I need help and suggestions.

There are agencies/groups that provide legal assistance for free to people who qualify. Legal Aid is one such a service. Additionaly, you can check if there is a law school nearby to where you live; they typically run free/low cost clinics that handle these cases. Also, you can contact the state/county/city bar associations to see if they have a list of lawyers who will take your case for free or at least for a reduced fee based on on your income/circumstances. Finally, you can contact the Department of Social Services to see if it can refer you to legal services that serve low income individuals.
