First Steps for a Divorce
Most people getting a divorce wonder what steps they need to take to get started. The Oregon Judicial Department has an 8 Step Roadmap to Dissolution (Divorce) available online. The first step laid out is “Issues to Consider”. This includes things like whether children are involved and how custody, parenting time, and child support will be handled. Another consideration is what property and debts are involved, and what was accumulated within the marriage. Having some or all of these things laid out before you visit a family law attorney or start completing forms yourself can help the whole process go more smoothly.
