I‘m trying to help my sibling with resources to understand the law regarding custody and assets. Are there any good books or websites to help with this? Grateful for any information!!! They live in Oregon. (And the legal battle is confusing and very ugly).
LibrarianRyan There should be a NOLO guide specific to their state. 5y
Chrissyreadit @LibrarianRyan what is NOLO? 5y
wanderinglynn They can check out the Oregon State Bar association‘s page. It has resource, as well as lawyer referrals: https://www.osbar.org/public/ 5y

wanderinglynn But for custody issues, which can get complicated & emotionally overwhelming, I‘d recommend getting a lawyer. The Oregon bar has resources. They can probably also check with the court too. When I worked for a court, we provided pro bono attorneys to those that qualified and also had a list for referrals. (edited) 5y
Chrissyreadit @wanderinglynn thank you! He has an attorney but does not always get clear information or answers although he is highly rated. His soon to be ex has been creating some crazy problems that he has paid for including mediation, then after thousands of dollars changes her mind and “requirements”. My brain hurts. They both make affordable livings. I‘m worried about my nephew, and to be honest she has always tried to keep us away from them-no love lost 5y
wanderinglynn That‘s too bad. Your poor nephew. 💔 Custody & divorce are about the hardest cases because of all the emotion. I hope his attorney starts giving him better answers—I would keep asking questions to the attorney until he gets the info he needs. 5y
LibrarianRyan @Chrissyreadit they make general legal books and how to books. They are great for forms or getting to know what ma happen. https://store.nolo.com/products/?utm_content=sYhxcT6Qa_dt|pcrid|342544757902|pkw... 5y
