Iwanyshyn & Associates prides itself on handling cases in a way that respects the entire family. Divorce is traumatic no matter how long or how short a time that you have been married. Aside from the financial aspects there are very serious emotional consequences for all parties. Did you know that people going through divorce have far more car accidents and are more forgetful? You mind and spirit are torn apart whether you are the party asking for the divorce or the one being forced into a divorce that you don’t want. If you are the child you feel victimized and helpless. People going through divorce need counselors and support in addition to lawyers. They need cooperative lawyers to help them achieve fair settlements without going into battle which results in bitterness that sometimes never dissipates. Children need counseling as well so that they have a safe space to vent their anger and frustration and to work through their feelings so that they don’t act out at a later time.
