It is a well-known fact among divorce lawyers that January is the most popular month for people to initiate divorce.

No matter the cause, for those contemplating divorce in the start of the New Year, here are some key resolutions.

Settling a divorce case is no easy task. It requires parties who are at odds with each other to come together for their mutual benefit. These parties must set aside their emotions and look at their economic situation in a detached, business-like manner. The attorneys advising these parties play a monumental role in convincing them to set aside their devastation, anger, and, perhaps, regret and focus on resolution. Both parties must have this same mindset to reach consensus. Timing is also key.

Many couples who are parting would prefer to hibernate over the holidays and resurface sometime in January. Nonetheless, there are ways to manage the holidays even if you are separating or divorcing, and there is even the chance that you will find some enjoyment. The tips below will help.

In an article published in Zillow Blog, Jennifer Brandt, a member of Cozen O'Connor's Family Law Department, discusses dividing the marital home in a divorce, one of the most difficult aspects of property distribution.
