Attorney Fees

I am a single mother of 5 amazing children ranging in age from 6 to 15. I have been divorced for almost 4 years now and every couple of months my ex husband has decided to accuse me of something or ask for a reduction in child support. This year has been a hard one for us because in January my child support was cut in half.  My ex husbands lifestyle has only become more extravagant. He has visits with our kids one weekend a month something he has chosen. Four months during this year I was working two jobs and for one of those months was working three jobs. After the last court date in May my kids and I had to move in with my parents as we could no longer afford to live on our own and I felt it best that my kids had their grandparents in the home seeing as I work so much just trying to help support us. Shortly after our last court date my ex husband decided to file a contempt of court against me. His allegations are not true but this is not another ordinary court filing. This time the punishment is 30 days in jail for me. The judge advised me to get an attorney. I was trying very hard not to seeing as I still owe my lasty attorney $15,000.00 from the last court case.  This however is very serious and my ex husband is trying to destroy me.  I need the $5000.00 for a retainer. My parents have loaned me the money so my attorney could get going on my case. I need to pay them back and feel this is the best option as I still owe so much money to my last attorney and I have no clue what attorney fees will come to at the end of this case. Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. My attorney will use this to show the judge that many people believe in me and know I am a good person and a good mother and do NOT deserve to be in jail but that my ex husband deserves to be strongly reprimanded and brought to a complete stop with all the the harrasement towards me in legal or personal ways.
