Single Mom Seeks Financial Help & Emotional Support

I am a single mom in the midst of an ugly custody battle / divorce. My (ex)husband is self-employed, has been lying about how much money he makes and is trying to prevent me from moving out of state with our son. My goal is not to take my son away from his father, but seeing how he was witness to a verbally abusive relationship, I feel that moving closer to my parents and family would be beneficial to both me and my son.
Lawyers are expensive, as well as the fact that I've had to hire a forensic accountant to try to establish the value of my husband's business in order for me to get any support from him at all. I have a great job, but my ex is claiming that somehow I owe him money through all of this.
He filed for a divorce in July and although it seems like this battle will drag on forever, I know my finances won't sustain me. I am asking for anyone's support (emotional, or otherwise) and words of encouragement from anyone who has been in the same or a similar situation.
