  • Woah

    Telling ppl they should tell their spouse abt divorce in public is diabolical- forcing the other person to just sit their and take it and make them show zero emotion and hold it all in because they are in public. Cruel AF

  • This knowledge gave me power

    This is the first review I have ever taken the time to write for a podcast. I am currently going through a divorce. I found this podcast while we were separated, but decided to begin listening to help prepare myself for what divorce even looks like. I recently had our custody mediation and I was completely prepared because of this podcast. My soon to be ex-husband was not as prepared as I was. I believe that it was beneficial to listen to this podcast and allow my emotions to take over and tears... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Divorce: Will Going Back to Work Cost You Spousal Support?
Q: If you go back to work, then it's going to look like you don't need any kind of spousal support. If somebody comes to you, Alan, and they are just dumping all of that on your table, what do we do right now to say, okay, everybody, clear your brains. This is the information we evaluate and here's how you do it.
Feigenbaum says spousal support depends on many factors and there is no hard-and-fast rule that returning to work automatically reduces support. He warns against refusing to work on the assumption that a judge will provide the needed money, and recommends assessing each person's circumstances with their lawyer.
Divorce: Will Going Back to Work Cost You Spousal Support?
Q: Somebody comes into your office and they are visibly overwhelmed. They say, Alan, I have been home with the kids for years. Now, I'm going through this divorce. Do I have to go back to work? Everyone's telling me that I have to go back to work. I'm not sure what to do. Where do you start with them in order to give them a useful response?
Feigenbaum first considers the children's ages and care needs, any disabilities or mental health needs, and how long the person has been out of the workforce. He says there is no automatic requirement to return to work immediately, though employment may become relevant as a case proceeds.
Divorce & Co-Parenting Conflict: When to Call Your Lawyer or GAL
Q: How should a parent approach the GAL with concerns about a co-parent's behavior?
Frame the issue as a concern for the child and present it in a non-accusatory way, showing how the behavior affects the child and proposing possible solutions rather than insisting the other parent is at fault.
Divorce & Co-Parenting Conflict: When to Call Your Lawyer or GAL
Q: What triggers a couple to escalate a co-parenting issue to the GAL rather than handling it directly with the other parent?
If there's a pattern of behavior that reliably impacts the child and cannot be resolved through direct communication, it's appropriate to involve a GAL to determine what action, if any, should be taken in the parenting plan or to protect the child's well-being.
Divorce Questions Answered: A Stalling Spouse & a Lawyer Who Won’t Call Back
Q: What should someone do when their attorney is slow to respond and the delays cause anxiety?
First, have a direct phone conversation with the attorney to express needs and expectations. If there is no improvement, consider a second opinion. In some cases, coordinating with a paralegal or office staff to ensure timely updates can help, but if delays persist, seek new representation.
