Divorce can sometimes be a very painful experience in life. For you to be suddenly separated from someone you loved and cherished and probably lived with for a long time sharing everything in common is really difficult. It is more so if Children are involve, this can increase the pitch of the dispute as each parent wants to have custody of the children. The good news is the divorce rate in the US is falling. According to statistics, the US national per capita divorce rate has declined steadily since its peak in 1981 and is now at its lowest level since 1970.
However some experts believe that it is not all good news, they predict that the divorce rate may likely escalate in the foreseeable future, why? Because the number of couples who live together without marrying has increased tenfold since 1960; and the marriage rate has dropped by nearly 30% in past 25 years. Invariably, what this means is that many people are still bound to go through divorce. Some believe that fear of future child disputes and possible divorce is a major cause in the increase of couples living together without marriage.
Whenever couples go through divorce, they are usually turned upside down by emotional and psychological turmoil. Unfortunately, most people going through a divorce do so on their own and struggle to make important life influencing decisions at a time when they are least prepared to do so.
Divorce is made even more challenging when children are involved. Issues of money, fear of losing your children, anger of alimony and revenge often interfere with parents' ability to appropriately consider their children needs and interests.
As a result of rise in the number of child custody dispute cases and the troubles that go along with them, there is an increasing need for parents to avail themselves of assistance from professionals who have some expertise in the areas of divorce, custody disputes, child development, family dynamics, the parental alienation syndrome and domestic violence. This is where the need of a divorce and trial consultant becomes handy- Note: A divorce consultant or a child custody strategist is not a substitute for an attorney, a divorce consultant can support, educate and give guidance.
