If you have children he has an obligation to support them. He might also have an obligation to provide you with spousal support since you are unemployed. I suggest you contact your county bar association to inquire about their pro bono or reduced fee program to allow you to consult with a family attorney at no or little cost to you, and to then possibly file court papers that would enable you to get the support you may be entitled to.
