No. contact your local bar association or legal aid society. If you are unable to get an attorney, ask for one at the trial or for a postponment so that you can obtain one. This is not a time to try to go it alone. Email me and I'll help you find your local legal aid society if you want.

Be prepared to pay about $3000 for it. Not many attorneys would be willing to do it for less than $5000. Next time, get off your butt and hire an attorney when you first know you are being sued. (yes, divorce is a lawsuit.)

And you waited until mid day Friday? Try children's services and see if you can get a delay while you seek council; try and get a postponement Monday. Hit the phone book

Not to be rude, but if you want your kids so bad, why didn't you look for a Lawyer earlier? Judging by your actions, they would probably be better off with the Father....Geez !!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
