So, January is the month when New Year’s resolutions are made and broken. And with the wind of fresh starts lifting them up, January is also the month when divorce filings skyrocket. In fact, it’s second only to June, when the kids are out of school and living arrangements can be altered before the start of the next school year.

Typically, parties are prompted to reach out to a divorce attorney in January because either they didn’t want to spoil the family celebrations or were hoping that the holidays would help them reconcile.

Either way, our office sees an influx of calls by new prospective clients who are ready to pull the trigger on their divorce in January and usually a couple of weeks after the New Years, once bills and the return to the routine underscore the same marital problems that existed before the holidays.
