Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Oregon

me and my ex partner owned a home together and adopted a son together. we sold the house in 2007 april, we settled for him to get approx 20,000.00 more for the house at signing then i did, between us it was because our son was living there with him and going to school. so we arranged that he would spend summers and weekends with me. well about a year ago he hired a laywer and tried to get custody. anyways make a long story short, i am currently being sue for childsupoort etc etc . is there any way i can sue him for the amount i was shorted??? even though there is nothing in writing.

You do not have to sue him separately. You can tell the judge in the child support suit all of the relevant facts, including the fact that he got $20,000 more out of the sale proceeds. You will also tell him your income, assets, etc., as will your ex partner. The judge will then decide on child support, based on all the facts and circumstances.
