In this episode of Buzzsaw, Sean Stone interviews Joseph Sorge about how divorce and family law is an equity court, not a court of law.
Episode Guide
Divorce Corp., the new documentary about divorce, family law, and the
big business of tearing families apart, is brought to Buzzsaw by its
director, Joseph Sorge. Discussing the priorities of family courts, how
stay at home parents are rewarded in divorce, and the different systems
of separation around the world, it is an intriguing look at the fallout
from when things fall apart in love, in an uncensored interview hosted
by Sean Stone.
Joseph Sorge is a first time
writer/director who became interested in the subject of divorce after
experiencing firsthand the complexities of the family law system.
Although his personal experience was less devastating than that of the
film’s victims, he spent countless days in family court witnessing the
callous, inefficient, and biased manner in which the court, and its
associated professionals, treated average citizens. Before he began
writing and filmmaking, Joseph earned a B.S. degree from M.I.T., and an
M.D degree from Harvard, was a professor of molecular biology at The
Scripps Research Institute, and founded a biotechnology company,
Stratagene, which he took public and later sold to a large medical
supply company.
