Joe Cordell Speaks with Money Radio about Issues Men Face During Divorce

Written by Joseph E. Cordell on .

money radioPrincipal Partner Joseph Cordell recently spoke with Ken Morgan from Money Radio on the station’s Business for Breakfast show.

During his interview, Mr. Cordell addressed many of the most common mistakes men make when facing divorce. He mentioned that for men who want primary child custody, or want to play large roles in their children’s lives, it’s often important not to move out of the house too early in the process.

“Once you’ve done that, you’re at a disadvantage,” Mr. Cordell explained. “Then, you’ve left your children in the primary care of mom. It can be difficult to get back to the place that you were before you walked out that door.”

He also discussed the disadvantages men sometimes face when dealing with family courts.

“There’s been a lot of progress in the last 20 years, I’m happy to report,” said Mr. Cordell. “But for the most part, when guys are in the family courts, they face an uphill battle for equal opportunity with custody of their children, maintenance, issues with child support…[they] are still overwhelmingly at a disadvantage.”

Joe Cordell Writes About Another Blow To Fathers’ Rights

Written by Joseph E. Cordell on .

logo-huffington-postThe recent New Jersey ruling blocking an unmarried father from being in the delivery room during the birth of his child has brought to the forefront an issue that desperately needs attention: the rights of an unmarried father.

Cordell & Cordell Principal Partner Joseph Cordell wrote in his latest Huffington Post column with the increasing trend of having children out of wedlock, it is time to readdress the rights – or lack thereof – held by unwed fathers.

The case in New Jersey has put a spotlight on just how little control a father has when he is not married to the mother of his child.

“Being married does not automatically make you a good parent; just as being unmarried doesn’t automatically make you a bad parent,” Mr. Cordell wrote. “Unwed fathers deserve the same opportunity to be a part of their child’s life, and it’s time we stop making them work so much harder to obtain basic parental rights.”
