TIME: Facebook And Divorce: Airing the Dirty Laundry
This week's Time Magazine examines the phenomenon of social networking as it applies to divorce. Belinda Luscome quoted DadsDivorce founder and sponsor, Joseph Cordell.
"It's now just routine for us to go over with clients whether they have an active presence on the Web and if they Twitter or have a MySpace page," says Joseph Cordell of Cordell & Cordell, a domestic-relations law firm with offices in 10 states. He advises his mostly male clients to scour their page — and their girlfriend's — for anything that could be used by their ex's legal team. Then Cordell studies the page of the soon-to-be ex-wife.
"We had a custody case where a mom assured the court that she hadn't been drinking," recalls the Missouri-based attorney. "But her MySpace page had actual dated photos of her drinking — and smoking, which is also of interest."

Tampa Tribune: Divorce Now With Assets Low, Lawyer Advises Men
Joseph Cordell, Principal Partner of Cordell & Cordell spoke with the Tampa Tribune about the strategic benefits of divorcing during a recession.

KKTV 11: Relationships, Divorce And The Economy
Cordell & Cordell - Colorado attorney, Barbara Johnson-Stern, was interviewed by 11 News - Colorado Springs on the effect the economy may have on relationships.
Across the country divorce attorneys report business is down. The American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers says 37% of attorneys polled reported fewer divorces during this economic downturn. But here in Colorado, at least at the offices of Cordell and Cordell, business has been consistent.
"We are still seeing a lot of people come in and really want to start and finish their divorce, it can be a good time to end your marriage," said divorce attorney, Barbara Johnson-Stern. She says that's because during a recession, there's less to divide up.
"If your house value is down, lets say a year ago you had $100,000 you had to share, now you have $10,000, it may be possible for one party to keep a house if all they have to distribute is 10-grand," Johnson-Stern said.
