Slowing Economy Increased Divorce Rates

August 5th, 2008 · No Comments


The slowing economy has had an interesting affect on the current status of many marriages.  In general, the total number of divorce filings has increased from the number of filing that occurred around the same time last year. 

Experts attribute this increase in filing to the slowing economy.  They believe that couples who have found themselves in a financial bind often succumb to the emotional pressures of not having much money.  This has been most apparent in the Central Texas area, but there is evidence that this is perhaps the case all over the country.  Expert sources in New York report a 20% increase in divorce filings since money has become less available on Wall Street.

As the economy continues to slow, experts expect increases in divorce filings to continue into the fall.  Divorce is a very difficult thing to go through.  If you or someone you know needs help with their current marriage situation, call the San Diego divorce law specialists of Fischer and Van Thiel by dialing 760.722.7646.
