Family law cases move on court deadlines — for example, you generally have a limited time to respond after being served, and custody or support issues can need urgent action. The sooner a participating family law firm can review your situation, the more options may be available. This is general information, not legal advice; a participating firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.
