Not only does the arrival of the new year marks an end to the merriment of the Christmas period, but it also signals the coming of Divorce Day. 

Divorce Day as it has come to be known by lawyers in recent years, is a day on which law firms reportedly see a spike in couples filing to split from one another.

It falls on the first Monday following 1 January which is of course today, and Deirdre Burke  Partner in Orpen Franks Solicitors and Head Of Family Law joined Ivan on this evenings Hard Shoulder to explain why so many couples chose today to officially end their marriage.
