Minneapolis, MN asked in Child Custody for Minnesota

Q: I need help with my answer and counter, for custody and parenting time.

I don't have an attorney as of yet, but only have a week left to respond with my answer and counter. I'm freaking out because I have no idea which paperwork i need to fill out and send back right away...please help. I've filled out most of it already but do I have to have all of the confidential and financial information too? i heard somewhere that i have another 30 days to have the financial ones done, from the time I serve my answer and counter petition. Is that true? What exactly do I need to have and/or not need to have to respond in a quick manner. Thank you
