A: You may be able to handle your child support action on your own through DHS' Child Support Services office. Most folks go through their process for child support enforcement without the assistance of an attorney.

However, I would always recommend the assistance of an attorney when dealing with a divorce, if you are unable to afford an attorney, you may look at Oklahoma Legal Aid. Depending on the County you live in, you may be able get one of their attorneys to assist you. They are generally provided free of charge. This is their website: https://www.legalaidok.org/
