BrokenDad;
This may work for you and only you will know the likelyhood of success. Consider retaining a rule-of-law type counsel from outside the good-ole-boy network. IMHO, many divorce lawyers will cooperate with the status quo rulings and inherent favortism. An attorney whose livihood is NOT dependent on a continued practice in that corrupt environment.
You may find the presence of such an individual has a network outside the community to expose the wrong doing and pretty much puts your adversarys in a CYA mode while providing s state's attorney with encouragement ... they're likely to be in the CYA mode as well.
I had to learn how to interview attorneys for that purpose and I could tell within 5 minutes if they had the balls to do what is necessary and another 10 minutes if they were for real and would not fall on their sword when the time comes. My attorneys (2) were cheap and talented.
Just something to think about.
