Ep. 17 - Navigating Divorce/Separation With A Special Needs Child
Manage episode 370860536 series 3292187
NYC Special Education Attorney Adam Dayan addresses the topic of special needs children in the context of family and divorce law with Andrea Vacca, Attorney and Owner of Vacca Law Group, and Josh Kershenbaum, Disability-Informed Mediator and Consultant. Andrea works exclusively with couples who wish to dissolve their relationships with the least possible impact on their family by working within the collaborative process and mediation. Josh brings over 20 years of experience and expertise in the areas of education and special education law to his mediation and collaborative divorce practices and devotes much of his time to helping parents of children and adults with special needs navigate divorce. Together they discuss some of the challenges faced by families of special needs children when navigating divorce and separation — particularly in the areas of financials issues, parenting issues, and finding opportunities for collaboration — and important considerations for the agreement process.
