Interpreting Vague Terms Outdated statistics still suggest that 50% of all marriages end in divorce. While the real number isn't that high (particularly in New York), it's worth noting that not every relationship will finish with a happily every after.

Some relationships will end badly, while others will finish when the two parties mutually decide that they need something different. Whatever it is that may lead to a divorce, it's important to know that you have the right guidance available to move on with your life.
