In this solo episode, Cary Jacobson breaks down how traditional hourly billing can increase anxiety, hesitation, and even conflict during negotiations. When every email and phone call adds to the bill, people often delay decisions or avoid asking important questions — and that uncertainty can slow progress.
Cary explains how flat-fee structures provide clarity, predictability, and financial transparency — and why that shift alone can reduce unnecessary tension and support a more cooperative process.
Divorce doesn’t have to be chaotic to be effective. With the right structure and support, it can be intentional, informed, and far less dramatic.
