Researchers have estimated that 40% to 50% of all first marriages, as well as about 60% of all second marriages in the United States will end in divorce. A large number of divorce attorneys, such as Tom Mallon divorce attorney, help about 2,400 couple sign themselves apart each day in US alone.

Divorce may be personal in nature, but is really common in the society. There are a number of myths about divorce that keep popping up, and it’s never easy to figure out what’s true. People have their own made-up and circulated opinions over divorce, that most often are not true at all. There is a huge number of contradicting opinions and theories about divorce, its biggest causes, and growth rates.

We’ll tell you how common divorce exactly is, as well as the major causes that are behind it.

How Common Are Divorces?
In the United States, divorces occur at rates of 40% to 50% when it’s a first marriage and at a higher rate of 60% when it’s a second marriage. Though divorce attorneys suggest settlements, divorce rates have drastically gone up in the last 50 years; however, have somewhat declined in the past few. Marriages now seem to last longer than they used to in the 1990s.

Some Major Causes of Divorce

There can be many factors that can make divorces likelier. The following are some of them:

Differences in ethnicity/race
Importance of religion/belief systems to the couple
Divorces in families of origin
Timing of the first birth of a child
Anxiety disorders

In modern days, some IT solutions are also there as the evidences like voice tapes, CDs and video clips etc. However, processing of the documents is the most important factor of finalization of a divorce case.

A divorce attorney can also hand over the papers of the divorce to the next party for having their opinion if the first party signed over all the documents of divorce and willing for it too. Though, the job is fully professional but the emotional and social points are also involved in it. Before any filing of the case, the divorce attorney tries better to resolve the issue outside the court but if the parties are un-willing for any mutual solution, the proceedings start as this is also the professional matter for the divorce attorney. Your emotional and mental state of mind may not be in a favorable state to take wise decisions, and at this moment, the divorce attorney plans to take care of the things on your behalf. He makes strategic moves, which are sure to put a positive impact on the judge and on your case as well.

If you have not made the appointment of an attorney, the legal details may later on haunt you hence one should not take a chance and must hire an attorney much before the start of the case. Make sure you check the experience and online reviews of the lawyer you are going to hire.
