Re: Divorce

Yes, most likely you will need a lawyer in AZ. However, there may be certain issues incidental to the divorce proceeding over which AZ does not have jursidictional athority. Included may be child support and child custody issues, as well a property division issues and issues pertaining to debt responsibilities. So you really ought to also talk with an OR attorney. (And it sounds like the one you apparently already spoke to was not very helpful.)
