Is January "Divorce Month"?

The months of January to March have garnered a reputation for being the time of year with the highest instances of couples filing for divorce. Whether it’s the aftermath of holiday stress or larger issues finally overflowing and becoming too difficult to manage, these months have a tendency to have higher divorce rates than others.

Once the decision is made to end a relationship by way of divorce, the question of where to start and what issues need to be covered becomes important. While some issues to consider may seem obvious, other big points might not come to mind as quickly. Doing your own research online or talking to friends who've been through divorce before can be helpful, but receiving guidance directly from a trained professional will help you in navigating your specific situation.
