Representing Yourself in Family Court

Trying to Represent Yourself in Family Court?

Divorce and custody battles are hard enough. Add the responsibility of representing yourself and it may seem like an impossible task. No, it's not always easy - but it can be done! You can represent yourself and not only survive but prevail! Let me show you how.

Court Can be Scary (But Doesn't Have to Be)

When you’re in court for divorce or custody, you are placing one of the most important parts of your life – your family – in the hands of a stranger in a black robe who may sometimes bear an uncanny resemblance to the grim reaper. This can be stressful enough, but add to that the pressure of representing yourself and it can seem like an impossible task.

Now, many of my colleagues won’t want me telling you this, but the process of preparing and presenting a case is actually quite simple. Why? Because the legal system has a predictable structure to it. If you know the structure and can follow step-by-step instructions, you can effectively present your case and have a fighting chance at getting the outcome you want.
