In this episode, Hindell speaks with Raiford Palmer, an experienced divorce attorney in the Chicago area, who recently published the book I Just Want This Done: How Smart, Successful People Get Divorced Without Losing Their Kids, Money, and Minds. Hindell and Raiford discuss how to balance the costs and benefits during a divorce case. The costs may include legal fees, increased spending due to separate households, impact on work performance and the emotional cost. Hindell and Raiford also talk about what to look for in an attorney, including positive reviews and experience in both alternative dispute resolution and litigation. They agree that a professional and business-like approach to divorce is more effective than a vindictive one.
