What We Want To Know: The Impact of Divorce On Children
The Ramos Law Group, PLLC is offering students an opportunity to win one of our bi-annual $1,000 scholarships. The scholarship is intended to help those individuals who are children of divorced parents, but it is not required that you are a child of divorced parents to be eligible. To apply, write a 1,000-word essay describing the impact of divorce on children. Our goal with this topic is to help parents understand how divorce impacted the lives of their children. The topic will change for each semester but will be in line with our goal of educating parents on the impact a divorce has on children. The winning essay will be posted on the Ramos Law Group Blog and Facebook, along with a picture of the author.

Quick Message
We are thrilled to offer a scholarship to our Texas community and hope to expand our scholarship program in the future. Mary and I both grew up in low-income families and benefited from various scholarships and help from our service in the Navy. One of the Scholarships we received was through a program offered at Jefferson Davis H.S. in the north side of Houston. Without this financial support, we would not be in a position to run a business, support our family, and help our clients heal, find peace, and achieve the happiness they deserve. We are blessed and would love to share the same with our community. If you need a scholarship or know someone who does, please apply or share the page with a friend. – Alfredo Ramos
