Divorce help! Assault issues

My husband (soon to be ex) and I split up in October of 2024, he abused me and police came and everything. He now has a warrant for the assault as well. (He fled the scene)

We previously lived in another state and he abused me there as well and there was a protective order placed. And then we moved here and he did it again.

I don’t want anything, I just want to be free of him for good. Any advice on what step to take next? I really don’t want to get a lawyer but I’m hoping that the assault will make things go faster and easier for me.

Please help
