This article aimed to assess the relationship between attachment styles, communication patterns, and marital satisfaction in divorcing couples. The study utilized the descriptive correlation method. One hundred couples, who referred to the Shafa Court, were selected via available sampling. The research instruments included the Revised Adult Attachment Scale (RAAS), Communication Pattern Questionnaire (CPQ), and Enrich Questionnaire. The mean ± standard deviation of subjects in secure, avoidant, and anxious attachment styles were 2.99 ± 0.39, 3.08 ± 0.38, and 3.25 ± 0.66, respectively. There was a significant relationship between attachment styles and communication patterns. However, attachment styles and communication patterns are not predictors of marital satisfaction in divorcing couples.
