Divorce Day: Family Law Blog

Today (Monday 8^th January) is the day coined ‘Divorce Day’ by the media. This essentially means that this is the day people are most likely to make the call to a law firm or carry out internet research in order to find out more about the process of divorcing or separating from their spouse or partner.

Divorce statistics:

• It is estimated that 42% of all marriages end in divorce
• Rates of divorce in the UK are the lowest they have been for 40 years, this is likely to be because more people than ever are choosing to co-habit meaning less marriages take place
• Couples that live together before marrying are less likely to get divorced later on
