How can I get my husband (soon ex husband) to pay my attorney fee's for divorce?

Asked by L1952 (206points) September 28th, 2014 from iPhone

I haven’t really discussed the divorce with my lawyer yet because we are currently going through another case involving my daughter but my husband is being extremely difficult, He ignores my calls, Text messages, Everything as much as he can because he is involved with someone else. He filed divorce about 2 months ago, I am now 7 months pregnant with possible preeclampsia, I am not well, and I have tried to ask him to help at least pay $100 towards my rent because I am not working my full 40 hours at work because I really just don’t feel I am well enough, He refuses to do anything, He always says when the baby is born he will pay the child support, and he leaves it at that, I’ve tried to explain to him a baby needs things before it’s actually here but he doesn’t believe me and thinks I am lying to get money out of him. I don’t know what to do, I cannot afford my lawyers fee’s again now because I’ve paid him over $3,000.00 for the case I am going through now but I really feel I need him there to help me and to assure my husband will not have visitation like he’s requested in the petition.
