Navigating family law issues can be overwhelming and emotionally taxing, particularly during challenging times like divorce or child custody disputes. It can be even worse if you have a child with a disability. The issues that arise for families that have children with disabilities during a divorce proceeding are so unique that it is crucial that you have representation that understands the issues before entering into any parenting plan or settlement agreement. A clear understanding of the roles and responsibilities of all the parties involved, helps avoid having to go back to court to address issues that arise, as they always do, related to the education, medical needs and expenses of that child.
One in five households in the United States has a child with a chronic illness, disability, or special health care need. The stress related to raising a child with unique needs impacts relationships leading to a divorce rate reported to be as high as 87%, compared to the overall national divorce rate of 42%.
Deciding to divorce is a complex decision, made even more intricate when there is a child with a disability in the family.
