Consult with a local attorney. Call around; many do not charge for initial consultations.

You should look for any type of work that you can qualify for in order to secure some income to use to hire an attorney to represent you. A divorce/family law attorney will be able to advise you on filing an action for temporary support. Do not put any money into joint accounts and do not allow your spouse to continue to use any credit cards that are in your name.
