There are a multitude of considerations you may have to go over with regard to divorce. For example, you and your marital partner may disagree about how property will be split up, or you could find yourself involved in a difficult custody dispute or stressed out because of a child support order. If you have children, divorce can present additional challenges. Our law firm knows that parents in Rochester and other parts of Michigan may have a hard time discussing divorce with their children. Moreover, there are certain times of year, such as during holidays and when kids are preparing to head back to school after summer break, when talking about divorce can be even more difficult.

If you have kids, it is important to do your best to prevent your divorce from interfering with their schoolwork or extracurricular activities. By sitting down and discussing what is happening and answering any questions they present, you may be able to reassure them that things will be okay. Sometimes, splitting up with a spouse is necessary and it is pivotal for parents to look into the different ways their children could be affected by the divorce.

Between buying school supplies and trying to help students adjust to a new daily schedule, back-to-school season can be a tricky time for parents to work through divorce. However, taking the right steps can help tremendously. On our divorce page, you will be able to read more about some of the different topics that arise with the divorce process.
