Escaping an Abuser

Donation protected
I have been married for 16 years to a very abusive man.
For the last 2 years I have been trying to untangle my life and get free of him.

For anyone familiar with abuse you know what a dangerous and scary process this can be. There is literally no form of abuse that wasn't used, and alerting him to my exit would have meant my life.

I collected evidence, and did everything they teach you to escape. I had my devices checked and spyware removed.
I was able to find a safe apartment.
I am working with the authorities.
I have a protective order.

He attacked me again on Nov 22nd, my birthday. 
I was able to get him removed from my property on the 23rd. 

My issue is he prevented me from getting gainful employment for many years. I am currently seeking work, but I was left in a position where:
I have no income.
He tried to have my car repossessed and failed to make payments as was agreed upon from our joint account.
I currently have no kitchen due to remodeling being done by my landlord and covid preventing work being completed.
It's my sons birthday in a little over a week and then Christmas, and I have nothing for him. 
My son is in need of news shoes and clothing and I can't afford them.
I need to pay an attorney for the divorce and have no ability to.
I have nothing to cover food or monthly expenses.

This would cover the bills and needs for my son and maybe leave me with a partial payment to my lawyer while I interview and attempt to gain employment and my freedom.

Anything helps and I hate to ask but I have never needed help so much in my life.
