Blank Rome partner and Litigation Department co-chair Brett S. Ward joined host Rhonda Noordyk on the Disrupting Divorce podcast to discuss the concept of “alienation of affection” and its role in modern divorce disputes.
In the episode "Alienation of Affection Explained: What Divorce Clients Need to Know with Brett Ward," Brett and Rhonda examine when mediation can be effective, and when it can fail, along with the reasons many individuals become trapped in divorce processes that no longer serve their interests. They speak candidly about power imbalances, lack of financial transparency, the importance of legal strategy, and what clients should look for in the professionals guiding them through divorce. The conversation also explores how social media is influencing contemporary family law cases and why public humiliation can intensify already painful situations.
