HB 1021: Educating parents of the harmful effects of parental abduction in child custody cases
The 2013 Washington State Legislature is considering a bill that would amend RCW 26.09 (Dissolution/Legal Separation Proceedings). The proposed bill would require any parent who commences divorce or legal separation proceedings involving a minor child would be provided a pamphlet, which they acknowledge receipt, explaining the harmful effects of abducting a minor child. As stated in the proposed bill, “A parent who is considering abducting his or her child should know and understand the potential short-term and long-term traumatic impacts that parental abduction has on a child and consider only those actions that will be lawful and will contribute to the child's best interests.”

LIMITED REPRESENTATION—SAVE MONEY ON ATTORNEY’S FEES
Washington State allows attorneys to appear for a limited purpose without having to hire or retain an attorney to handle your entire case. In a legal proceeding, do you need assistance negotiating final orders, conducting mediation, or arguing a hearing? Superior Court Civil Rule 4.2 allows attorneys to appear for a specific task, typically with a specific estimate (i.e., how much it will cost), to handle your legal needs.
