A divorce can get really ugly and as each person and their divorce lawyers scramble to provide evidence that will give them favorable judgments to get them satisfactory settlements.
A lawyer in St Petersburg Florida, Carin Constantine, said she used evidence collected from Facebook in 90 percent of the cases she tried. The American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, released a study that said Facebook was used in 1 out if 5 divorce cases but Constantine uses it in a larger number of her cases. The study maintained that Facebook is a hotbed of extramarital affairs.
Constantine can gather evidence which will help or hurt a client, depending on which side she is fighting for, through Facebook or by searching Google images. There is little privacy protection on Facebook especially if just one of a person’s many friends doesn’t have the appropriate privacy settings.
Infidelity is one of the most common reasons for people to seek the advice of a divorce attorney, and have their marriages dissolved. The number of men and women who cheat on their spouses are almost equivalent. Women cheat on their husbands about 54 percent of the time while men cheat about 57 percent of the time.
When cheating is involved, the spurned spouse should retain a divorce lawyer to get obtain the best settlement. A settlement can’t heal the wounds inflicted by infidelity but it can help by getting favorable support so the individuals divorcing can move on with their lives
