Hosts: Catherine Shanahan, CDFA & Karen Chellew, Legal LiaisonPresented by: My Divorce Solution

You’ve done the work, your mediation date is approaching—and your spouse has barely provided more than a screenshot or two of their accounts. What now?

In this episode, Catherine and Karen take you behind the scenes of what happens when mediation is scheduled but the documents just aren’t there. They walk you through the common pitfalls, legal misconceptions, and high-stakes decisions that clients face in this scenario. Whether you're facing a controlling spouse, incomplete documentation, or pressure from professionals to move forward, this episode offers practical, empowering steps to protect your financial future.

  • Why negotiating in mediation without full disclosure is like “negotiating in the dark”

  • Why asking for documents is not aggression—it’s protection

  • Real-world scenarios and how professionals sometimes pressure clients to move forward prematurely

  • The MDS playbook for Pre-Mediation Triage

  • Your three critical options: Go, Pause, or Pivot

  • Tools attorneys and mediators can (and should) use to get the missing data

  • The real cost of moving forward without clarity—and how to avoid regret
