You could go to your local domestic relations and file a petition for spousal support. You will need a lawyer to make a claim for alimony as this will require the filing of a counter-claim with a count for alimony. also, depending on the circumstances, your lawyer may file a count for lawyer's fees.
If you can't afford an attorney, I would suggest that you contact the local bar association to see if you qualify for a pro bono program. It will really be in your best interest to retain counsel.
