Most people assume divorce means a 50/50 split — but in most of the country, that’s not how the law works. In this episode, Karen and Catherine sit down with Attorney Jessica Fagan of Atlanta’s Fagan Law Group to unpack the 50/50 myth: what equitable distribution really means, why “fair” isn’t always equal, and how knowing your zone of settlement helps you negotiate from knowledge, not fear.
