Learn about Divorce, Paternity & Custody Law

“Know Your Legal Rights: Divorce, Paternity and Custody Law,” a free informational program for parents and married couples interested in legal information about family law, will be presented at Honokaa Public Library on Monday, April 27 at 5:30 p.m.

Ramona Herlihy, an AmeriCorps member of the Hilo Legal Aid Office, will provide a general overview of the divorce, paternity, and custody law. Herlihy will introduce participants to the Access to Justice interactive forms and legal information available online. She will also share information about other helpful agencies. A question-and-answer session will be included.

This program is the second of the “Know Your Legal Rights” series conducted statewide by the Legal Aid Society of Hawaii at 10 public libraries through the Access to Justice grant. The Hawaii State Judiciary, State Justice Institute, Legal Aid Society of Hawaii, and the Hawaii State Public Library System are sponsoring this one- hour program.
