Alabama Divorce Statistics

Posted on 06. May, 2009 by Alabama Divorce Lawyer, Jim Jeffries in Divorce

Divorce is a real problem in Alabama

Alabama ranks high in divorce rates.

According to the U.S. Department of Public Health, Alabama’s divorce rate was 39% higher than the national rate in 2007.

A recent article in the Time Daily, reports that many churches in Alabama are responding by implementing Divorce care programs for their communities.  Encouragingly, the article relates that many communities are also responding by implementing programs to strengthen marriage. In my experience as a practicing divorce attorney in Alabama, that is where the focus should be.

I encourage you to read the article.
