Families with LAS (Legal Abuse Syndrome) About Families with LAS, or Legal Abuse Syndrome, are those who have experienced ongoing legal proceedings, particularly in the context of family court, that have left them feeling powerless, frustrated, and emotionally drained.

Families with LAS may feel like they have been unfairly targeted or discriminated against by the legal system, with judges, attorneys, and other court officials not understanding their situation or prioritizing their needs. They may feel like their voices are not being heard or that their concerns are being dismissed or trivialized. As a result, they may experience feelings of helplessness, anxiety, depression, and even post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
