Dear Divorce Diary - With Daz & Jop
Darren Mort-Family Law Barrister & Joplin Higgins-Family Law SolicitorWhen a relationship ends, it can feel like the world is breaking apart — legally, emotionally and practically. The Dear Divorce Diary Podcast exists to guide you through that difficult landscape with clarity, compassion and a child-focused mindset.
Each episode, Darren “Daz” Mort and Joplin “Jop” Higgins draw on their extensive experience within the family law system to unpack what separation and divorce really look like — not just on paper, but in real life.
They believe that families deserve dignity, children deserve protection, and adults deserve guidance that is calm, respectful and grounded in expertise rather than conflict.
Together, they explore the issues so many couples face when separating, including:
How to divorce with dignityUnderstanding the family court processWhat to expect in mediationHow to co-parent respectfully and consistentlyFinancial and property settlement — explained in plain EnglishParenting arrangements after divorceHow to avoid court and resolve disputes constructivelyPractical tips for separating parentsChild-focused decision making and emotional awarenessWhen to involve a lawyer or barristerBetter communication during conflict and separationAnd because no two separations look the same, you can be part of the conversation.
Listeners are invited to submit their questions for Daz & Jop, with future episodes dedicated to answering real experiences, real challenges and real concerns from the people who need guidance most.
Whether you’re contemplating separation, navigating court, co-parenting, or simply trying to put your children first through the uncertainty — The Dear Divorce Diary Podcast offers steady, professional guidance to help reshape the path ahead.
Real law. Real families. Real conversations.
