Divorce does not just divide property. It reshapes the future. And sometimes, quietly, it leaves outdated plans sitting in place that no longer reflect your reality.

In this episode, family and divorce mediator Matthew Brickman unpacks how life insurance policies and wills can be impacted after a marriage ends, why beneficiary designations matter more than most people realize, and what happens when legal documents lag behind life changes.

If you assume everything “automatically updates” after divorce, you've fell asleep and this episode is a wake up call.

Matthew Brickman answers your most frequently asked questions about divorce as he goes over several key points:

• Assume nothing.
• Know who you are before you get married.
• Know who you're getting married to.
• Know the laws and statutes in the state you live in.
• Don't take advice from anyone who isn't a legal professional in the state in which you're getting married and living in.
