When it comes to Divorce, Would you know what to do?

This year, 2013, there was a survey throughout the European Union that revealed the UK had the highest divorce rate in Europe.

The number of divorces throughout Europe is increasing with one in five couples in the UK now ending in divorce within the first ten years of marriage, that is an average of 1.8 divorces per 1000 couples.

Research has found that couples that make it past the 10-year mark have a much lower statistic in divorce rates with just 2% ending in divorce after 30 years of marriage.

With the fast paced nature of todays working world, it seems more and more couples struggle to make it through hard times such as the recession with the majority of divorces occurring in the first 3 – 6 years of marriage.
