The effects Divorce has on our Children’s Education

Bill and Melinda Gates were special guests on an episode of the Oprah Winfrey show last week discussing problems in the American education system.  The show points out that even though America is the richest nation on Earth its students are not meeting the standards of students in other countries.  The law firm of Leeds Morelli & Brown P.C. shares in the belief that education is fundamental to the continued success of America, and has itself donated to worthy educational institutions, including Hofstra University School of Law. 

 Leeds Morelli & Brown P.C. knows that their neighbors in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, Nassau and Suffolk Counties share this ideal and that parents want the best future possible for their children.  However, too often during divorce proceedings lawyers find that parents fight over where to send their children to school.  Unfortunately, there are times when these disputes are not about which school will serve the children better, but about the parent feeling like they have won some sort of victory in the contest.  The attorneys of the law firm of Leeds Morelli & Brown P.C. urge all parties in divorce proceedings to remember that education is fundamental and to act in their children’s best interest rather than playing hardball to punish their former spouse.
