The graph illustrates the percentage of marriages that ended in divorce in the United States from the year 2000 ('00) to 2022 ('22). The x-axis represents the years, labeled with two-digit abbreviations from '00 to '22, while the y-axis displays the divorce rates as percentages. Throughout this period, divorce rates varied between a high of 41.7% in 2002 and a low of 32.62% in 2022. The data shows a notable decline in divorce rates over the two decades, with some fluctuations occurring in the early and mid-2000s. Overall, the trend indicates a steady decrease in the proportion of marriages ending in divorce in the United States from 2000 to 2022.
Despite public opinion that divorce is becoming more frequent in the United States, the divorce rate actually seems to be declining, with Nevada being the top state for divorce in 2022, with a rate of *** divorces per 1,000 of the population, followed by Oklahoma, Arkansas, Idaho, and Wyoming. Marriage and divorce in Nevada Nevada has one of the highest marriage rates in the country, and Las Vegas is a popular wedding destination. Nevada is one of the few states in the U.S. that allows couples to get a marriage license and get married immediately afterwards. In addition, Nevada is a no-fault divorce state, which means that couples do not need to address the reason behind the divorce. Divorced couples in the U.S. In recent years, the number of divorced individuals over age 50 in the U.S. seems to have surpassed the number of those who were under the age of 30, but whether the younger generation remains married longer than generations past is yet to be seen. Additionally, far more children of divorced parents lived with a female single parent, rather than a male single parent.

The graph displays the divorce rate per 1,000 people in the United States from 2000 to 2022. The x-axis represents the years, labeled from '00 to '22, while the y-axis indicates the divorce rate per 1,000 individuals. The divorce rate starts at 4.0 per 1,000 in 2000 and 2001, which are the highest values in the dataset. Over the years, there is a general downward trend, with the rate decreasing to 2.3 per 1,000 in 2020, the lowest point recorded. In 2021 and 2022, the rate slightly fluctuates, rising to 2.5 and then decreasing to 2.4 per 1,000 respectively. The data highlights a consistent decline in the divorce rate over the 22-year period.
In 2022, the divorce rate in the United States stood at *** per 1,000 of the population. Divorce in the U.S. Divorce is the termination of a marital union. In the United States, as in most other countries, it is a legal process in which a judge or another legal authority dissolves the bonds of matrimony existing between two persons. The process of divorce also normally involves issues surrounding distribution of property, financial support of the former spouse, child custody and child support. A divorce also allows a person to marry again.In the United States, divorce is, like marriage, a matter for state governments, not the federal government. Although divorce laws vary from state to state, for example on which terms a divorce can be arranged, a divorce must be certified by a court of law to become effective. A declining divorce rate Over the last couple of years, both the marriage rate and the divorce rate have been declining in the United States. As of 2009, the average length of a first marriage in the U.S. was ***** years, while the average length of a second marriage was about ** years.
According to a survey conducted in the United States, 43 percent of American couples changed location of their honeymoon due to the coronavirus pandemic. About 41 percent of respondents, instead, said that they postponed the initial honeymoon date.

This paper estimates the effects of unilateral divorce laws on divorce rates in the USA from a panel of state-level divorce rates. We use the interactive fixed-effects model to address the issue of endogeneity due to the association between cross-state unobserved heterogeneity and divorce law reforms. We document that earlier studies in the literature do not fully control for unobserved heterogeneity and result in mixed empirical evidence on the effects of divorce law reforms. While reconciling these conflicting results, our results suggest that divorce law reforms have temporal positive effects on divorce rates, thus confirming the 2006 findings of Wolfers. Via simulation experiments, we assess the degree to which faulty inclusion or faulty exclusion of interactive fixed effects affects the policy effect estimators. Our results suggest that faulty inclusion only results in efficiency loss whereas faulty exclusion causes bias.
In 2022, there were about ******* divorces conducted in the United States. This is a decrease from the previous year, when there were about ******* divorces conducted nationwide.

As of 2023, the divorce rate in China decreased to *** divorces per 1,000 inhabitants. Before 2020, this number had been constantly increasing since 2002. Divorce rate in Asian countries The divorce rate in China soared from around **** divorces per 1,000 people in 2000 to **** divorces in 2019. This is a quite high value compared to the divorce rate of countries in the Asia Pacific region. However, China shares the fate of a growing divorce rate with many other developing countries, while in most developed countries, the number of divorces per 1,000 inhabitants is either stable or falling. For example, the divorce rate in Singapore has been manly stable at *** divorces per 1,000 inhabitants in the last ten years and the divorce rate in South Korea has fallen from *** in 2009 to *** in 2023. In comparison, the U.S. divorce rate has been falling since 1992 from *** divorces per 1,000 people to *** divorces in 2022. Dating scene in China For the younger generations, dating and marriage happens (if at all) at a much later life stage compared to their parents. The fact that China has the highest working hours in the region does not ease the dire situation for singles in China, most of them being employed as professionals or employed in the media sector, where long working hours and high work pressure are quite common.
In 2022, Nevada had the highest marriage rate in the United States, with **** marriages per 1,000 residents. Hawaii had the second-highest marriage rate, at **** marriages per 1,000 residents. The falling marriage rate Perhaps unsurprisingly, the marriage rate in the United States has fallen since 1990, although it has leveled off in the past decade. This means that fewer and fewer people are getting married than in years past, particularly as views about marriage have changed in the U.S. However, despite changing perceptions about marriage and a falling marriage rate, there were more married couples in the United States in 2021 than there were in 1960. First comes love, then comes marriage Weddings and marriage have changed in the United States recently as people have been staying single longer, and especially as gay marriage and interracial marriage have become more socially acceptable. The changing face of America means that love and relationships are changing as well, and what is socially acceptable within a relationship will continue to change with it.
According to the 2020 UNIDOMO questionnaire, Portugal clearly led the list of European countries with the highest divorce rate per 100 marriages. With 91.5 divorces the Portuguese Republic led the list, followed by Spain and Luxembourg. All three countries boast a significantly higher share than the other European countries, each reporting a divorce rate over 80 divorces.
A different way to look at Portugal
While Portugal clearly has the most divorces per 100 marriages, looking at divorce rates per 1.000 inhabitants in other European countries alters the picture of the country as one unsettled by significant numbers of divorces. With nearly 1.7 divorces per 1,000 inhabitants Portugal has roughly the same divorce rate as Germany and the Netherlands. Interesting is furthermore that although marriages in Portugal tend to result in divorce lightly more often as in Luxembourg (80.3%), the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg experienced a 0.6 point higher divorce rate.
What about the rest of the World?
While compared with Latin American countries like Guatemala or Peru, ranked among the countries with the lowest divorce rates in the world, Luxembourg’s divorce rate seems excessive. However, when compared with divorce rates (per 1.000 inhabitants) of countries like the United States (2.7) or China (3.5) divorce rates from Luxembourg and Europe are not out of the ordinary.

The Family Law and Divorce Lawyers and Attorneys industry has seen tepid growth recently, influenced by shifting American family dynamics. Divorce rates have been on the decline, putting a damper on revenue growth. However, per capita disposable income has risen, a silver lining that has allowed more individuals to afford expert legal advice, keeping the industry from going belly up. Despite these mixed signals, successful firms adapt to changing conditions to maintain their competitive edge. Ultimately, lawyers and attorneys practicing in family and divorce law are forecast to see revenue grow at a CAGR of 0.3% to total $13.2 billion over the five years to 2024. In 2024, industry revenue is expected to climb an additional 0.7%.External competition for family and divorce law practitioners is on the rise. Billing hours for lawyers continue to increase, pushing potential clients to seek less expensive alternatives. Online filing services present significant competition for traditional family law firms. Additionally, individuals increasingly turn to volunteer lawyers and nonprofit centers to settle matters without hiring experienced operators or going to court. For example, the Collaborative Family Law Center in New York offers divorce-related assistance, and similar centers exist nationwide. These trends are indicative of the growing challenge traditional firms face in maintaining their client base, hampering profitability. The national divorce rate is expected to keep falling, likely putting a squeeze on revenue for family and divorce law practitioners. Potential clients will increasingly turn to the internet to file less complicated documents, bypassing traditional legal services. With more of the population connected online, online legal platforms are set to rise. Moreover, the trend of resolving family law cases without lawyers is expected to grow, fueled by specialized nonprofit centers and volunteer lawyers. This shift will further mitigate growth, as more individuals seek cost-effective alternatives for their legal needs, leaving traditional law firms to face revenue declines. As a result, industry revenue is forecast to contract at a CAGR of 0.2% to $13.1 billion over the five years to 2029.

The global divorce services market is experiencing significant growth, driven by rising divorce rates, increased awareness of mental health, and the growing accessibility of online therapy and counseling platforms. The market, segmented by application (male and female) and type of service (divorce counseling, evaluation, and others), shows strong potential for expansion. While precise figures for market size and CAGR are not provided, a reasonable estimation based on industry reports and growth trends in related sectors suggests a market valued in the billions, experiencing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 8-10% between 2025 and 2033. This growth is propelled by several key factors, including increased societal acceptance of divorce, higher levels of stress and relationship conflict in modern life, and the increasing affordability and convenience of online divorce support resources. The convenience and anonymity offered by online platforms like ReGain, BetterHelp, and Calmerry are significantly contributing to market expansion, especially among younger demographics. The market's regional distribution reflects global trends in divorce rates and economic development. North America and Europe currently hold the largest market shares, due to higher disposable incomes and established mental healthcare infrastructure. However, rapid growth is anticipated in Asia-Pacific regions driven by increasing urbanization, changing social norms, and rising awareness around mental well-being. Restraints to market growth include the stigma associated with divorce in some cultures, the lack of access to affordable services in developing countries, and concerns regarding data privacy and security in online platforms. The ongoing evolution of technology and the integration of artificial intelligence within mental health platforms are likely to further shape the market landscape, offering personalized and efficient services. Future growth will be determined by the expansion of affordable, accessible, and culturally sensitive services across diverse regions.

Although the American Community Survey (ACS) produces population, demographic and housing unit estimates, it is the Census Bureau's Population Estimates Program that produces and disseminates the official estimates of the population for the nation, states, counties, cities, and towns and estimates of housing units for states and counties..Supporting documentation on code lists, subject definitions, data accuracy, and statistical testing can be found on the American Community Survey website in the .Technical Documentation.. section......Sample size and data quality measures (including coverage rates, allocation rates, and response rates) can be found on the American Community Survey website in the .Methodology.. section..Source: U.S. Census Bureau, 2014-2018 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates.Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted roughly as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see .ACS Technical Documentation..). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables..Divorce estimates may vary from the divorce data released by the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) because of differences in methodology and data collection. NCHS uses information collected on divorce decrees from states providing them. From these administrative records, NCHS then publishes information about couples who divorced in a calendar year. In contrast, the ACS collects survey-based reports from individuals as to whether or not they divorced in the last 12 months. We recommend using caution when comparing the NCHS estimates to the ACS estimates of divorces..While the 2014-2018 American Community Survey (ACS) data generally reflect the February 2013 Office of Management and Budget (OMB) definitions of metropolitan and micropolitan statistical areas; in certain instances the names, codes, and boundaries of the principal cities shown in ACS tables may differ from the OMB definitions due to differences in the effective dates of the geographic entities..Estimates of urban and rural populations, housing units, and characteristics reflect boundaries of urban areas defined based on Census 2010 data. As a result, data for urban and rural areas from the ACS do not necessarily reflect the results of ongoing urbanization..Explanation of Symbols:..An "**" entry in the margin of error column indicates that either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute a standard error and thus the margin of error. A statistical test is not appropriate..An "-" entry in the estimate column indicates that either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute an estimate, or a ratio of medians cannot be calculated because one or both of the median estimates falls in the lowest interval or upper interval of an open-ended distribution, or the margin of error associated with a median was larger than the median itself..An "-" following a median estimate means the median falls in the lowest interval of an open-ended distribution..An "+" following a median estimate means the median falls in the upper interval of an open-ended distribution..An "***" entry in the margin of error column indicates that the median falls in the lowest interval or upper interval of an open-ended distribution.

The global family law software market size reached an estimated value of USD 535.2 million in 2023 and is expected to grow significantly to USD 1.08 billion by 2032, reflecting a robust CAGR of 8.1% from 2024 to 2032. This growth is driven primarily by the increasing complexity of family law cases and the rising demand for efficient and accurate legal solutions.
Several factors contribute to the rapid growth of the family law software market. The legal industry is experiencing a digital transformation, with law firms and legal practitioners increasingly relying on technology to manage cases, streamline workflows, and improve efficiency. Family law is no exception, with specialized software being developed to handle intricate case details, automate document creation, and ensure compliance with legal standards. Moreover, the growing volume of family law cases, driven by rising divorce rates and complex family structures, necessitates the use of sophisticated software tools to manage and navigate these cases effectively.
Another significant growth factor is the increasing awareness and adoption of cloud-based solutions. Cloud-based family law software offers several advantages, including remote access, real-time collaboration, and reduced IT infrastructure costs. Law firms and individual practitioners are increasingly opting for cloud solutions to enhance flexibility and accessibility, enabling them to work from anywhere and collaborate seamlessly with clients and colleagues. This trend is further accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has highlighted the importance of remote work and digital solutions in maintaining business continuity.
Furthermore, the integration of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) into family law software is expected to drive market growth. These technologies enable predictive analytics, automated legal research, and intelligent document management, helping legal professionals make data-driven decisions and improve case outcomes. The ability to leverage AI and ML for tasks such as case analysis, risk assessment, and client communication is transforming the way family law practitioners operate, leading to increased adoption of these advanced software solutions.
In the context of rising divorce rates and complex family dynamics, Divorce Counseling Service has become an essential component for many individuals navigating the legal and emotional aspects of separation. Divorce counseling provides crucial support to clients, helping them manage the stress and emotional turmoil that often accompany divorce proceedings. By offering guidance and coping strategies, these services complement the legal process, ensuring that clients are better prepared to handle the challenges of divorce. As family law practitioners increasingly recognize the importance of holistic support, integrating divorce counseling services into their practice can enhance client satisfaction and improve overall case outcomes.
Regionally, North America holds the largest market share in the family law software market, driven by the presence of major legal technology providers and the high adoption rate of advanced legal solutions. Europe follows closely, with a growing number of legal firms and practitioners investing in digital transformation. The Asia Pacific region is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period, fueled by increasing awareness of legal technology and the expansion of the legal industry in emerging economies. Latin America and the Middle East & Africa are also anticipated to experience steady growth, supported by ongoing legal reforms and the modernization of legal systems.
The family law software market can be segmented based on components into software and services. The software segment is further divided into standalone software and integrated software suites. The demand for standalone software solutions is driven by small and medium-sized law firms that require specific functionalities without the need for comprehensive suites. These solutions offer targeted features such as case management, document automation, and client communication, enabling legal professionals to handle family law cases efficiently.
On the other hand, integrated software suites are gaining traction among larger law firms and government agencies that require comprehensive solutions to man
