How to Divorce in the Shadow of Covid-19

October 5, 2020 By Norma Trusch Leave a Comment

Covid-19 and divorce

It is not a surprise that divorce filings surged in Wuhan in the wake of the covid-19 pandemic.  A long quarantine in a confined area can cause strains in the best of relationships, much less on couples who were living with and, perhaps, ignoring the uncomfortable realities of their relationships.  Texas attorneys are already experiencing the upsurge in divorce clients, and the limitations of the resources available to the court system.
