Challenges of Divorce with a Special Needs Child

Post by Christopher Migliaccio Leave a Comment

Are you going through a divorce in Richardson, Texas and have a special needs child at home whose best interests are of top priority? The attorneys at Warren & Migliaccio understand the complexities of these child custody cases and other problems that may lie ahead.

Three Concerns Pertaining to a Special Needs Child When Divorcing 

Don’t make your proceedings more stressful by not preparing for what’s to come. The following are three obstacles you should be aware of that may particularly be affected due to the involvement of a special needs child: 

Visitation rights: A child that has special needs tends to fare better when his or her daily schedule doesn’t vary; therefore, it’s important that you and your ex-spouse develop a visitation schedule that wouldn’t be too overwhelming for your child with special needs. Don’t forget about transporting any customized or specialized equipment or specific transportation needs that your child may need, too. 

Child support: Standard factors for determining child support may not include the additional necessities for a special needs child. Support is typically calculated by the value of the non-custodial parent’s net income; therefore, you may be settling to a payment that is nowhere near the level needed to raise a special needs child. Make sure to lay out all of your expenses with your attorney so that this information is presented at court. 

Spousal support: Considering the extra care and supervision needed to raise a special needs child, the parent who has primary custody may have to put his or her career on hold. Make sure that this is addressed in your legal case so you receive adequate funds so you may continue to pay your child the attention he or she needs.

Protect the Rights of You and Your Children – Seek Family Law Attorneys
