Cheaper to keep her? It is now. Divorce rates hit all time low.
Divorce rates have hit an all time low. It is now cheaper to keep her. During these tough economic times many families that struggle to make it on dual incomes cannot afford to go it solo. The American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers has recently reported a sharp decline in divorce filings across the United States.

Sometimes though, the economic stressors can put a great deal of strain on the best of marriages. Indeed, there are many ways to interpret the effects of a declining economy. People often divorce because of problems with money, sex and communication. If you are just left with sex and communication, make the best of it.
Family law attorneys cite the poor economy as the number one reason that couples are staying together when they would otherwise likely divorce. This makes for a lot of unhappy households but at least a whole lot more children are not caught in the middle of their parents’ divorce proceedings
So, while economics may make it cheaper to keep her these days, this economy may help make families stronger in some respects. Couples need to pull together in times of crisis and it appears we are in crisis mode.
If divorce is inevitable, a real money saver can be found by using the collaborative divorce approach. In collaborative family law, each party hires a specially trained attorney and the parties and their counsel sign a participation contract and agree to settle their disputes out of court. The benefits to the children are priceless.
Please do not be offended by the “cheaper to keep her” line. It rhymes and I can’t think of a male version that is as catchy. If you can, please stop by www.DivorceWithoutDishonor.com and post a comment.
