My question involves a marriage in the state of: a Spouse Who Was Deported

My question involves a marriage in the state of: Georgia, but I live in NYC. He was deported from Miami, FL--to France -- past summer. He is barred from US and I need a divorce, yet I am in process of foreclosure of home and other monstrous events, of which he was financially the cause. All free legal help agencies have turned me down due to:
1. Complications to uncontestation, such as: my sponsorship of green card forms, which were all denied anyway, but fact that I sponsored became issue
2. His incarceration in FL for 3 felonies, leading to deportation -- subsequent threats to me to illegally re-enter US and get even for mis-percieved reasons for his incarceration and deportation -- directed at me, as reasons for all his bad luck!!! (All untrue and proven so)

I am taking a turn in my mind today from an uncontested divorce to a contested one. Not only has he left my financially obligated to point of nearing homelessness, I am physically sick from him since 2008. Can I sue him for alimony? He may have alot more than he has let on anyway and I need answers
about how he can pay for what he has done [to me].


I assume I should apply in state of legal residence, but if I don't have an address for him in France . . . I get in touch with him thru his brother's FB and what if I try to do this by myself, alone, to save on lawyer costs? Thanks in advance.
