Not every separation ends in a highly contentious battle in family court. Even when emotions are running high shortly after the separation, they often need time to settle. Our approach is to calm the “fighters” and work towards a solution that prioritizes the children’s well-being. The goal is always to reach a consensus. In separations involving children, we do not seek winners or losers; you will remain connected through your children. We aim to avoid leaving a scorched earth and always leave room for potential reconciliation as co-parents. This mission is both reasonable and essential.
However, this is not always achievable..
It takes two to quarrel – but also two to make peace!
High-conflict cases often involve various forms of violence: psychological, and sometimes physical, with financial violence occurring when money is involved. This violence typically existed during the relationship, although the affected woman may not have recognized it at the time or may have minimized or ignored it. In rare instances, the woman may be unaware of the violence when she seeks our counseling; she might sense that “something isn’t right” but struggle to identify the (often psychological) abuse.
Many women affected by violence often hear the statement, “It takes two to quarrel!” While this might be true in other areas of life, in divorces concerning money and children, everyone involved should ask themselves: Where does quarreling end and psychological, physical, or financial violence begin?
These cases often cannot be resolved peacefully and typically become highly contentious. A ruling or agreement do not bring closure, as the daily interactions with such a father are extremely burdensome for both the mother and children. This situation often poses a risk to the child’s safety, at least from the perspective of the mothers who understand their children’s well-being, and can sometimes even become dangerous. However, this danger is frequently not recognized by others.
