First 72 Hours: Financial Steps to Protect Yourself When Divorce Starts (Oklahoma Focus)

In this focused five-minute episode Jeff Hensley walks listeners through the immediate, practical financial steps to take in the first 72 hours after deciding to separate. This episode gives a prioritized checklist: which accounts to secure, how to preserve income and debt records, quick moves to protect children’s expenses, and which narrow legal steps (temporary orders, emergency relief, preserving evidence) matter most early on. Jeff uses plainspoken, Oklahoma-focused examples so listeners understand what’s routine and what requires counsel. The aim is to reduce panic, protect finances and custody interests, and provide concrete actions you can take before your first attorney meeting. By the end you’ll have clear next steps, a short list of documents to gather, and the right questions to ask a lawyer.
