What does it take to be a family services lawyer?

Ok so im 22 years old and ive been going through hell just to try and see my son, I have done nothing wrong but my sons mother feels that if I do not want to be with her then I cannot see my child. She wont even take my money for the baby so I just deposit it in a bank account for him. I have been really thinking of going to school but I do not know what profession I want to take. But I have been really considering being a family services lawyer to help fathers in my situation. Sometimes its not the dads fault but I believe that the legal system is this country is so messed up that the law favors women allot more than men even tho the mother is wrong. What to I have to do besides hard work and dedication to be a family services lawyer? What affordable law schools would you recommend?

Separation/divorce – do I need a lawyer for this last step of the process?

Hi,
My former wife will buy our matrimonial home from me as part of our separation, based on our separation agreement. we already have a signed separation agreement so our family law lawyers are no longer involved.
Should I pay a lawyer to complete the transaction or should I save my money for other things?
Basically, what we will do within a week is:
- Remove my name from the title
- Remove my name from the mortgage
- She will pay me an equalization amount

ALL of the above is exactly in line with the agreement. My question is: is it important that I have a lawyer representing me for this last step or not really (as long as I read everything carefully of course to ensure it’s in line with the agreement)??
THANKS.
ps. (she did hire a new lawyer but just for the purpose of removing my name from the title, not the other two items mentioned above)

I hope someone out here can help with a family law questions?

ok I wanted to know if you can terminate a fathers rights if is in jail? I have 2 kids that my husband wants to adopt, and looking on the internet i know you are suppose to get the biological fathers consent, thus, I have had no contact with the biological father for over 4 years, and he has had no contact with my children as well. S o with this also in mind. My kids do not no their biological father . they believe my husband "that i recently married and been w/for 7 yrs" is there only DAD.
So if i can terminate his rights how do I go about this process on my own without a lawyer, Since money is crucial right now since my husband is in his last year of medical school and we have 5 kids all together thats:including my 2 kids i brought into the relationship" oh I hope I can get any help there is. Oh and I live in the state of Illinois.

Nevada family law,Can father keep kids from mother if no custody has been established? Is this legal?

Mother of 2,I reside in ohio my kids in las vegas with my ex whom i never married. I decided to keep the kids toghther for finacial reasons until i was on my feet again to do custody. My son is not my exes he has legal guardianship,my daughter is ours. There has not been any custody as of yet. "We just agreed". It has changed,he controls everything and i have been to visit,he does not let our kids see their mother and i call all the time i barley get to talk to them just when the dad feels like it. My only fault here was being broke,not working as a house mom when being with him,trying to get out of a rut now. I have been told i need a lawyer in lasvegas,does anyone know how i find a lawyer that accepts payment plans? Or how i can find someone that practices nv law in ohio? Or is there anything i can do myself to save money?At this point it is hurting the kids and my ex thinks he is and will always be calling the shots. I did this only with good intentions in mind ,i thought he was too
