Tis the season to be....divorced?

January marks the beginning of a new year…..and usually a new start for many. It is by far the busiest month for some divorce lawyers with enquiries in relation to divorce proceedings being made at an all time high. Indeed one national paper headlined on the 3^rd January 2013 “Today is the most popular day for women to file for divorce”.

Why January? We would assume strains in relationships which have heightened over the Christmas period together with financial worries mixed with a cocktail of alcohol.

Divorce proceedings can become complex, especially where there are children and finances involved. It can often bring out the worst in people, and relations between married couples can become acrimonious, coupled with the court process which may be daunting for many.

With members of the team who have over fifteen years experience in divorce law, including trained mediators and collaborative lawyers, we are always at hand to offer a sympathetic and supportive ear during these stressful times.
