Front line worker in need of a divorce lawyer

Donation protected
Hello friends and family: I am finding this extremely difficult to bring myself to write this, but I really could use your help. I have always been a very independent individual who has been able to fend for myself and have the means to support myself but right now this is unfortunately not the case for me. I have gotten myself into a bad situation of marrying a person who turned out to be exactly the opposite of who he said he was, and I need help with getting a divorce lawyer. My husband has been physically and mentally abusive and I no longer feel safe in the same household and in desperate need of a good divorce lawyer so I can be free of this man and move on with my life.

After the first time he had harmed me, I thought it was a fluke. Unfortunately this was not the case...So I requested that we go to marriage counseling or that we would have to result to divorce. He is currently still in his diversion program to wipe the domestic violence  charge from his record. Long story short, he agreed to marriage counseling but after two times he stopped going. So I have decided that I was done putting effort into the relationship and started staying at other people’s houses for my safety and emotional well-being.

Even after all of the mental, physical abuse and adultery, the state of Arizona is a no fault state, so I am screwed. Due to not working this last year because I was in medical school, I have not had the option of working or making money because he said I didn’t need to... now I realize this was just another way for him to control me. I am starting from the ground up and cannot afford a lawyer and this is why I am here asking for support. I need to get out of this relationship ASAP and cannot afford a lawyer. Without the lawyer I will not be able to win spousal support that I need until I’m done with my last semester of medical school. Desperate times call for desperate measures and if you even have $1, it will seriously be appreciated and I will never forget it. Without a lawyer I will be completely steamrolled and unsafe. Thank you so so much for taking the time to read this, and even share. Love you all so much.
