January is the busiest month for divorce filings, where there is a sharp rise in people wishing to begin divorce proceedings at the start of the year. The festive season’s emotional, familial, and monetary stress coupled with New Year’s fresh start mentality and resolutions illustrate why couples often find themselves reconsidering their marital vows.
After the holiday season, the period in January is the last straw for many relationships as tensions build and the pressure cooker can no longer be contained. The extended, concentrated period of time together over the holidays can often magnify and increase conflict. In addition, divorce can simply be a New Year’s resolution for people to better their lives, which means eliminating toxic relationships.
Almost one-third of divorce filings are done during January. At Sara Horowitz PA, we make the process of divorce as simple and straightforward as possible. We help you protect, plan, and personalize your future for what matters most to you. You need not define yourself by your circumstances, but by how you handle them.
We understand the common questions and concerns that arise during “Divorce January” and are equipped to provide the specific guidance needed to reach a legally sound and expedient resolution.
In recent years, family lawyers have seen a change in how divorces are handled. No longer do divorce proceedings need to break the bank or be a protracted process. The chance to reflect and take stock of what matters most while adopting a modern approach to divorce may mean consulting a family lawyer to discuss your options and their recommendations.
