Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

My husband has taken all of our money, cash ,and left. He has a bank account for the business with out my name on it and there is about $20,000 in it. He left me a check a while back for $1000.00 . what would happen if I cashed it or changed it to $11,000 ?

Is there a check list of things I need to get together before I start to file for devorce?

Altering the check would be forgery, which is a felony. Cashing it would not.

Make a list of property and values and kids (names birthdates and SSNs) and find a divorce lawyer in your town. Have the attorney file temporary orders for support.
