He has established online platforms like dadsdivorce.com, mensdivorce.com, and mensrights.com, providing invaluable resources to individuals navigating divorce and men's rights issues.

Insights from Joe Cordell shed light on the challenges faced by men in the legal system. While advocating for gender equality, he emphasizes that the current landscape tilts unfavorably for men. Courts possess the authority to redistribute financial resources, altering the dynamics of divorce proceedings. Many male clients mistakenly assume that their financial capacity guarantees them primary custody. However, the reality is quite different. Today, the process is primarily administrative, involving a division of responsibilities, often resulting in the transfer of financial resources from men to nurturing mothers. Paradoxically, a man's financial success can be a detriment rather than an advantage in custody battles.
The most critical decisions in custody disputes revolve around physical and legal custody. Legal custody entails the authority to make crucial decisions regarding a child's well-being, including health, education, and religion. Achieving a 50-50 parenting arrangement, which may seem straightforward initially, can prove more intricate. Judges may conclude that co-parenting is not in the child's best interest, leading to alternative custody arrangements.
Although sexual abuse was once a weapon frequently employed in divorce cases, its prevalence has diminished compared to the 1990s. However, obtaining an Order of Protection remains an effective means of ensuring safety, with less evidence required for its issuance. In some instances, relying on a guardian ad litem may not yield desired results, as they may exert undue influence over children's treatment.
Through his expertise and dedicated advocacy, Joe Cordell strives to bring awareness to the complexities of divorce and custody battles, fostering an equitable legal environment for all individuals involved.
