You can do your own divorce! You don't have to hire an attorney if you want a divorce. If your divorce will be uncontested (as are 85% of all divorces in Oregon), you can do your own and save hundreds to thousands of dollars. This book clearly explains the most recent divorce laws of Oregon and also provides the necessary forms and instructions on how to process your divorce.
Topics include: How much does a divorce cost? Do I need an attorney? Suppose I cannot afford to pay the fees for a divorce? Can my spouse and I apply for a divorce together? What are the grounds for divorce? How do I determine the amount of child support my spouse should pay? What do I do if my spouse threatens me or the children? Can I get a restraining order?
Even if you have an attorney handling your divorce, this book is a useful guide; it will help you to be better prepared for your attorney and the court.
