      photo conflict

      Is the other parent legally entitled to copies of professional photographs a parent had taken? These are not school pictures or the like, but studio portraits that were privately commissioned by one parent. This is admittedly not a life or death matter, but I would appreciate imput.

      lawyer`s role

      I have a quick question. Does discussion of EVERY issue have to involve the lawyers? Once there is not an "active" case, can't parents talk to each other directly? Can I tell my lawyer that I am not willing to work through lawyers to discuss routine issues? It is really driving up my legal...
