Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

my husband filed for divorce accusing me of physical and mental cruelty and has an order of protection against me because we were arguing and i yelled at him. He is also asking for sole custody of my kids. I have been to therapy and diagnosed with depression. My husband has been violent with me and it is on my psychiatric record. I cannot afford a lawyer and i have to proceed on my own. My husband has been cruel with my daughter and with me and he has a lawyer. I have proof against him. Can justice prevail?I have told his lawyer that he has been arrested. Does his lawyer have a conscience?
