Post-COVID Trends in Norwalk Divorce Cases
Divorce rates in Connecticut have fluctuated over the years. In 2022, the state had a divorce rate of 2.8 per 1,000 residents, which marked an increase from the 2020 low of 1.6 per 1,000. In Norwalk, CT, divorce and family law cases reflect the unique dynamics of this vibrant coastal community.
Post-COVID trends have shown a rise in divorce filings, with many couples opting for quicker separations due to evolving societal norms and financial independence. Norwalk’s diverse population and mix of urban and suburban lifestyles often bring unique challenges in family law, such as navigating complex custody arrangements or dividing assets tied to local businesses and properties.
Additionally, the city’s proximity to major economic hubs has contributed to cases involving high-net-worth individuals, where financial independence and equitable asset division are key concerns. With these factors in mind, having a knowledgeable family law attorney in Norwalk is essential to address the specific needs of local families and ensure fair, efficient resolutions.

I had to find an attorney and the Happy Even After was highly recommended to me so I made my consultation with Renée. Right away I felt at ease. Renée took some of my worries away and she reassured me this is all normal procedure in getting a divorce. Renée was very professional, respectful, polite and kind... Renée was very thorough and smart when it comes to divorce and child custody especially for fathers’ rights. Everyone in her office was very professional, polite and caring. The paralegal was very helpful. She would get things done ASAP and if you needed something, she would send it through email right away. It was always a pleasure speaking with her on the phone, in person or through email. I also had the pleasure of working with Leslie who prepared my financial affidavit. She was always a pleasure to speak with, very polite, professional and helpful. Leslie would walk me through something I did not understand step-by-step or would find the answer for me. Overall, the whole firm was excellent. I highly recommend Happy Even After to anyone that's going through a divorce..... thanks for the positive experience from Renée and her law firm!!!!- Phil
