Divorce Monday

Traditionally family law firms see a rise in the number of people contacting firms about divorce the first Monday in the new year and dub the day ‘Divorce Monday’ so why do so many people want to start the divorce /separating proceedings so soon after the festive period?

Divorce is not an easy process, in fact it’s known as the second most traumatic life experience after death of a loved one. We have broken down why this is a real issue.

  1. Financial stress: with so much money to pull out in one month can put added pressure on couples. From the build up to buying presents, to the expense of entertaining family and friends over Christmas cab sends couples in an argument a merry go round.
  2. Spending time with family members: Christmas time is all about spending quality time with family and members of the family who may only get together at special occasions. Not everyone may get along and this puts added pressure on couples to behave and to avoid family arguments with in-laws extended family etc
  3. Too much over indulgence: from pre festive drinks, works Christmas parties. There is a lot of alcohol consumed over the festive season. If a relationship is already on the rocks the this time of year of lots of parties can trigger infidelity.
  4. Work/school routine disrupted: with many people breaking up just before Christmas and going back to work/school after it’s all over it can be quite over-whelming to have to entertain the kids, keeping other family members happy and your spouse. Not being distracted by work can make some couples start to analyse why the relationship isn’t working and therefore look to enquirer about divorce in the new year.
