January 16, 2015

Men’s Divorce, sponsor Cordell & Cordell and sister site DadsDivorce.com have teamed up to present a series of weekly recap videos to keep you informed on the latest news and top stories.

This week, Cordell & Cordell announced the opening of a new office in East Brunwick, New Jersey. The new location is just the latest in Cordell & Cordell’s plan to extend its reach and help protect the rights of men and father’s across the country, with many other offices slated to open in 2015.

Dad’s Divorce posted an article exploring the history of child support laws in the United States. While custody laws have adapted to changes in society over time, there is still a long way to go for the laws to catch up with current cultural trends.

Despite the beginning of a push to make shared custody the default standard, it will likely be a while before custody laws are reformed to create a system that gives two parents an equitable role in their children’s lives after divorce.

Men’s Divorce published a new article detailing the advantages of settling your divorce out of court. Despite the fact that heated courtroom battles are often closely associated with divorce, the vast majority of cases actually settle before ever reaching the judge.

The increased time, cost and lack of control over the outcome all make settling a much more appealing option for even the most contentious of divorces.
