Fully Taking Care Of Clients And Their Families

Divorce and memory loss

On Behalf of | Oct 25, 2019 | Divorce |

There are many issues that frequently arise when it comes to the end of a marriage, such as problems involving child custody and financial concerns. Some marriages fall apart because of affairs or couples growing apart after many years. However, some couples experience unique issues surrounding their divorce, such as memory loss. There are various ways in which memory loss affects the divorce process (and post-divorce family law matters such as child custody). In fact, in some instances, dementia, memory loss and other mental issues are actually the reason behind a marriage crumbling and some people do not even realize the role that these problems can play in a marriage falling apart.

If you are struggling with memory loss, it is imperative to prevent your memory problems from making things harder. You will likely need to take an especially cautious approach to your divorce and it is crucial to document key issues and reach out to loved ones for support, if possible. On the other hand, if your ex is struggling with memory loss, it is important to show a level of understanding and do your best to make things easier. If children are involved and you are concerned about your former partner’s ability to take care of the kids, this is another issue that requires careful consideration.

Fortunately, many people are able to push through and successfully end their marriage even though they are experience problems related to short-term or long-term memory loss.
