Heading toward divorce during the holidays can feel like navigating a snowstorm with no clear road ahead—stressful, overwhelming and full of obstacles.

As anyone who follows the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) knows by now, the FCC’s one to consent rules are scheduled to go into effect on Jan. 27, 2025.
