Discovery Demystified: Why Fact-Finding is the Most Important Step in Your Divorce with Susan Guthrie on Divorce & Beyond #377

The discovery process is one of the most critical phases of divorce—it directly impacts your settlement and the final outcome. In this episode, host Susan Guthrie breaks down what discovery is, why it matters, what to expect, and how to prepare for it.

You’ll also hear some of the complex issues that can arise in high-asset cases and the key professionals you may need to bring in to support you along the way. By the end of this episode, you'll have a clearer understanding of how to navigate discovery and why it can be both a powerful tool and a major stumbling block in your divorce.

You’ll Discover in This Episode:

• Why discovery is all about transparency—it ensures that both parties have the financial information needed to reach a fair settlement.
• How to stay organized and work closely with your attorney to provide accurate and timely responses.
• What to do if your case is complex: don’t hesitate to bring in experts to uncover hidden assets or analyze business finances.
