First of all,I'm sorry about your marriage and what you have gone through during the custody battle.

I'm no PS expert, and I'm struggling about my own PS and how to end it as well. Below is just my own two cents.

I think it's better to write another paragraph or two to tell the admission committee what you have learned, or what inspired you to pursue a law degree, or anything that ties your experience to law school. Because without it, the whole passage just looks like a story about how a father who loves his daughter fought for custody, and I'm not sure how to relate it to a law school application.

Check out Yale and U Chicago's websites for more details on what schools are looking for in a PS. They are quite informative.
