My husband of 5 years recently left me, claiming mental issues, but in reality he was seeing another woman. I caught him by cell phone record, he bitched up and just left, still to this day not admitting to his ways, despite the $300 phone bill and me having a conversation with the other woman. I love my husband very much and am distraught that he will not even talk to me. He left me me almost 5 months pregnant (1st child), with all the bills and said he would help me, of course that hasn't happened. He makes $33/hour and she is a nurse, he is living in her house, driving her new car, while I am left pregnant, working for $11/hr paying my medical insurance. I am considered a high risk pregnancy, I had a brain tumor removed, and also have suffered a stroke. I went to domestics for spousal support to help me through until I received child support, do I need a lawyer for my first meeting or can I do it alone, I have all the proof and really can't afford a lawyer. Thanks

Though you SHOULD be able to handle things well....I would still discuss the issue with a local attorney to determine if the attorney can represent you with the bill being paid (by court order) by your former spouse.
Best wishes.

PA is a woman's state - junior is gonna have to pay for leaving your high and dry while pregnant.
You can probably go it alone - but I would recommend seeking council at some point to protect your rights.
By the way - you say you love this man very much....but do you respect him any more? Honestly - sounds like you are better off without him.
