Emotional Impact of a Contested Case

Separation or divorce is a legal process, but it is also a difficult emotional process.

You and your family will surely feel the impact of the legal processes and the emotional issues.

• Keep your children out of the conflict between you and the other parent. Learn more about how you can protect your children at Stepping Back From Anger: Protecting Your Children During Divorce .
