Getting Out Without a Scorched Earth Divorce

Joe Dillon, divorce mediator and co-founder of Equitable Mediation, discusses his background and the benefits of mediation over a litigated divorce.  He contrasts the aggressive, financially draining nature of litigated divorces with the cost effective, cooperative approach of mediation, which he has practiced for over two decades.  Joe emphasizes the importance of financial literacy and transparency, highlighting common issues like hidden debt and financial abuse.  He mentions his online courses on divorce mediation, which aim to educate clients on divorce preperation, negotiation tactics and emotional aspects.  Dillon's approach, which includes collaboration with his partner and wife, a divorce coach, aims to help clients reach agreements efficiently and minimalize emotional and financial strain.
