There are a couple of different options. You can try to talk with someone at Indiana Legal Aid. There have a pretty rigorous qualification requirement, but they can explain that better to you than I can. If they are not able to help you, then you may want to try to talk to the Indiana Volunteer Lawyers Network.
If neither of these options work, then contact a private attorney. You may have a situation where your spouse will be responsible for a good portion of the legal bills. If that is the case, some attorneys will take a lower retainer and then get the fees from the other spouse.
