answered on Feb 23, 2018
The general rule is each party is responsible for their own legal fees, however, It is possible for the court to order one party to pay the other party's attorney fees. If a case has been filed you should consult with an attorney asap. Many offer free consultations.

There is a child support calculator on the OK DHS website. You will need to enter gross monthly income for each and health insurance costs. Even if you don't have all the info, this should give you an idea what it will be.

We live in Oklahoma. Our divorce was filed in Texas. The termination of parental rights were also filed in Texas. The father is currently in prison, but up for parole soon. What rights do we have if he comes to our house or my son's school?

It would be a good idea to write him before his release, and remind him of termination of his rights, and that he is prohibited by law from contact with the child, and... View More

Yes, but why file it? There is no need if you're separated, and each have the property they want. Very few of these are filed now. In past years most were filed by Catholics who were opposed to divorce.

divorce was default, ex didnt show up for court, I was awarded primary residence. I am the only one on the mortgage. I want to re-finance, but was told I couldnt unless I get ex to sign a quit claim deed. Is there another way to remove ex from title/deed instead of a quit claim deed?
