Q. I want to have my kids more, but my wife refuses.

9 October 2020

A: I agree with my colleague. I would add one thing though, and that is parents are entitled to 50/50 parenting time unless the objecting parent can demonstrate good reason why the other parent should not receive 50/50 parenting time. You should speak with a lawyer to determine what rights you have and develop a litigation strategy going forward.

Q. Is it possible to file a parenting plan modification without an attorney in Oregon due to safety concerns

29 September 2020

A: Yes, you can file for a parenting plan modification without an attorney. You will need to locate the forms for a Motion to Show Cause re: Modification of Parenting Time on the court website which you can fill out yourself. If you find them too difficult, you should retain an attorney to assist you.

Q. I am under adjust status currently with my pending Family-Based Application. My husband is quite not treating me right.

25 September 2020

A: Your question isn't clear from the facts you presented. There is no way you can force your husband to contribute in a more meaningful way to the household. You could seek a divorce, and a lawyer can help you do that.
