Rise in divorces seen if Senate bill is passed – PAO lawyer

A LAWYER from the Public Attorney's Office (PAO) said divorces could spike once a bill in the Senate that tackles the issue is passed into law.

In a recorded video interview with The Manila Times, PAO assistant regional public attorney Joy Adraneda said if Senate Bill (SB) 147, which is the Divorce Bill, gets passed into law, courts will be filled with an influx of divorce cases.
