In the Muslim world a man can obtain a divorce by simply repeating the word three times. The Islamic word for divorce is taloq. Men in the region can become divorced by the Islamic ritual called triple taloq, and many are walking away from their marriages in this fashion. One Russian woman named Marina Dodobayeva was recently divorced from her husband in Russia via a text message, according to Associated Press. When she called him, he told her to never call him again, that he had a new family.
In the Muslim world divorce is frowned upon but in Tajikstan more and more women are finding themselves newly single because of the triple taloq ritual. Islamic women are rarely granted the right to divorce.
In the United States two-thirds of all divorces are initiated by women. They often seek the counsel of a divorce attorney to end dissolve their marriages.
In a divorce there are many issues to be handled and some of those choices require the expert advice of a divorce lawyer. In the emotional rollercoaster of a divorce, important decisions can be difficult to make. Deciding on who gets custody of the children and how property is divided is crucial to the proceedings. An experienced divorce attorney can offer rational and informed advice to the divorcing parties along with negotiating the settlement that suits their client the best.
