Well you know how people use this rule when using whom or who:
he/she=who
him/her=whom
Is there a way of figuring out (or another rule) when you're using the word whose?

What do you need to figure out?

Who is used when asking or telling or is an object
(Who is she?)
(Hes the one who said it)
Whom is when something is being done to someone or is subjective
(It is he to whom I shall give it)
(To whom are you speaking?)

whose - is always used when talking about possession/belonging - e.g. whose bag is on the sofa? (the bag belongs to someone)
Who's - is the contraction of 'who is' or 'who has' - if you are unsure which to use try replacing whose/who's with 'who is' and see if it makes sense - if it doens't, use 'whose'
