Oklahoma Fathers Rights Divorce and Custody Blog Mission Statement
I created this Blog with a few specific goals:
- Provide information to help people understand some of the basic laws and how they are actually applied in a courtroom.
- Help people develop realistic expectations. I feel a common problem is attorneys not properly managing client expectations. Knowing the most realistic outcome is critical in court and at mediation.
- Provide a glimpse of what the divorce lawyer / paternity lawyer sees, thinks, and feels from the lawyer’s perspective.
- This blog is not technical in nature. My intent is to provide practical information.
- This is not a self-help site. You need an attorney to represent you in any family law matter.
