What issues might complicate the ending of relationships when children, multiple partners, or multiple parents are present? How do gender, gender transition, ethnicity, immigration status, economic status, geography, and other characteristics shape the experiences of divorcing or separating LGBTQ people? Finally, how can therapists and lawyers most effectively assist LGBTQ people whose relationships and families are dissolving? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eLGBTQ Divorce and Relationship Dissolution: Psychological and Legal Perspectives and Implications for Practice\u003c\/em\u003e brings together social science and legal perspectives to examine the timely topic of relationship dissolution and divorce among sexual and gender minorities.
