In brief

Cheating couples that do not want to get a divorce should avoid using their mobile phones, according to lawyers. Shelly Chesworth of SAS Daniels Solicitors in Cheshire says that up to 75% of the cases she deals with had been sparked by the discovery of illicit text messages, photographs or videos. “Many people are caught out because they make the mistake of thinking their phone is forbidden territory, but if a spouse is suspicious, then these days they will make a beeline for either the PC or the mobile phone,” she says.
