Divorce hurts? This is how you can get through the separation well financially. On average, one in three marriages in Germany ends in divorce.
According to the Federal Statistical Office, there were around 2022137,000 divorces. If you want to be in a good position when it comes to money, you should actively take care of financial matters after the separation. If the ex-partner cannot provide for himself or herself financially - because he or she is looking after small children - separation maintenance comes into play.
