Mitchell Gordon: How to Navigate a Divorce and Addiction


Listen Later

When your spouse's addiction threatens to destroy not just your marriage but your whole family's future, you need expert guidance to protect yourself and your loved ones. Attorney Mitchell Gordon brings over 23 years of specialized experience helping clients navigate the complexities that occur when addiction intersects with divorce, offering strategic solutions that safeguard both families and finances.

Drawing from his extensive experience with cases involving alcohol, drugs, gambling, and other addictions, Mitch emphasizes that the key to navigating a divorce and addiction is to treat the addiction as a disease rather than a moral failing. 

Mitch’s approach focuses on implementing practical protections - from supervised visitation and breathalyzer requirements for parenting time, to innovative solutions for high-functioning professionals who need specialized treatment options that won't derail their careers.

Mitch also provides insight into sophisticated strategies for protecting assets and securing support payments in cases involving addiction. He demonstrates how modern technology and data collection devices including Soberlink can help prove addiction patterns. Finally he offers insights into structuring settlements that can protect both the immediate and long-term interests of the non-addicted spouse.

If you or someone you know is dealing with addiction and divorce, this is a “Can’t Miss” episode.
