If you are in the process of getting a divorce, you may want to think twice before you hit send on that text or email on your smartphone. According to a recent study, there has been a widespread increase in the number of divorce cases using data obtained from smartphones as evidence.
The American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), a group made up of over 1,500 family law attorneys across the country, conducted the survey. It found that 92 percent of the organization's members noted a rise in the use of smartphone evidence over the past three years. More specifically, 94 percent reported an increase in evidence stemming from text messages.
