Social Media, Marriage & Arizona Divorce A Phoenix Divorce Attorney Perspective

In our experience at the Law Office of Cosmas Onyia, an experienced Phoenix divorce lawyer, we have seen a number of cases and have represented hundreds of clients involving filing divorce for many different reasons. Many of these cases have some pretty common issues and reasosn as to why each individual has decided to permanently disolve their marriage. We have found that one of the top reasons for couples filing divorce in Arizona is infidelity, however social media has been a tremndous factor in contributing to this issue.

These days, our Phoenix divorce lawyers have represented clients who have decided to file divorce for the same reason, infidelity, but in many of these newer cases, social media has created a platform for a husband or wife to look elsewhere quickly, conveniently, and instantaneously. Nowadays people can connect with current co-workers, former co-workers, classmates, and former significant others very easily. Today’s social platform also makes it easy to find someone new or carry on a secret relationship with an aqcuaintance or friend. Either way you slice it, quite frankly social media makes it easy to connect with someone and can amplify temptation.

Our Phoenix divorce lawyers found that many of our clients who have filed divorce due to the husband or wife being unfaithful, caught their spouse by tracking it to their social media connections. The bottom line is that this new way of communicating and networking with people provides an opportunity for spouses to actively seek new relationships so long as that is their goal. As the old rule of thumb states, if he or she is going to cheat, you can truly do nothing to prevent it, as is the case even with social media. The point of this article is to shed light on this new way of connecting as it has assited many cheating spouses achieve their goal of finding a new fling or affair. As an experienced Phoenix divorce lawyer, attorney Cosmas Onyia has seen his fair share of these types of Arizona divorce cases.
