January and February see spikes in online divorce legal searches

According to Google search statistics, January 2016 and January 2012 were the two most popular months for divorce searches in the last ten years, and it is consistently proven to be the busiest time of the year for solicitors who handle divorce and the financial and conveyancing issues surrounding separation. According to The Independent, January 8th is being dubbed as “Divorce Day” by lawyers because of the number of enquiries they receive from couples wishing to end their marriages after the festive period.

Experts say the stress of trying to have a perfect family Christmas when you’re no longer happy with your spouse can get too much, as well as the financial pressures and unfulfilled expectations this time of year brings.

Relate, one of the UK’s biggest relationship charities, has also revealed it received a peak in calls in January.

Google’s data also shows that there are some peaks in other months, such as May and August, and that December is also consistently higher for divorce searches.

For solicitor firms, it may be prudent to absorb such figures and plan effectively for both marketing plans and coordinate processes to handle the upsurge in clients around the peak times.
