Episode 225: From Overwhelm to Clarity: The Power of Subpoenas in Divorce with Becky Sampson
Friday, 1 May, 2026
In this episode, Rhonda sits down with Becky Sampson, founder of Only Subpoenas™, for a grounded conversation about one of the most misunderstood tools in divorce: subpoenas. If you've ever felt like you're making decisions without the full picture, you're not alone. Many women find themselves asking for financial information again and again—only to be met with delays, partial answers, or silence. This conversation explores what happens when you shift from asking… to accessing. Becky shares her personal story of navigating a high-conflict divorce, where she issued 21 subpoenas over the course of her case. What began as a frustrating process became a turning point—helping her uncover critical financial information, build confidence, and ultimately create leverage in her settlement. Together, Rhonda and Becky break down what a subpoena actually is (and what it's not), when it might make sense to consider one, and how it fits into a broader financial strategy during divorce. This isn't about being aggressive. It's about being informed. In This Episode, We Cover: What a subpoena is—and how it differs from a discovery request Why "asking nicely" doesn't always lead to full transparency How subpoenas can help close gaps in financial information The emotional side of gaining access to information (and what to do with it) Why more information isn't always better—and how to stay strategic Real examples of uncovering hidden accounts, income, and spending The role of organization and clarity when reviewing financial records How subpoenas can create leverage in negotiations What to consider before pursuing additional documentation Key Takeaway You don't have to make life-altering financial decisions with incomplete information. And… you don't have to rush the process. But there may come a point where continuing to ask keeps you stuck. That's where understanding your options—and having the right support—can change everything. 👤 Meet Our Guest: Becky Sampson is the Founder and CEO of ONLY Subpoenas™ - After 21 hearings, 21 Subpoenas, and 3 ½ years in the Hawaii Family Court system, facing 5 attorneys and representing herself not because she wanted to, she had to for most of it, and she won. Not just any win, but a fair and equitable outcome for both parties while keeping an open heart. Since then, she has been affectionately known as "Becky Brockovich." Now she helps others navigate the legal system with strength and clarity, so they too can stand up for what's fair and walk away empowered.
