Helen gives a thorough rundown about the role of an attorney and how the use of documentation is the most effective way to present your case.

For anyone going through a divorce with someone with a personality disorder or will be soon, this is a must-listen episode. *This episode was originally aired on our Survivor Story podcast last year and it didn't get the attention I thought it deserved. I had many lawyers email me after hearing it, telling me what a an amazing job Helen did, so I'm reposting it this week on the Q&A podcast in the hopes that it reaches a new and wider audience.* Sign up to our High Conflict Parenting Courses at https://narcissistapocalypse.com/courses Join our Patreon for extra content and support the show https://www.patreon.com/narcissistapocalypse Join our Instagram Channel at https://www.instagram.com/narcissistapocalypse Join our Facebook Support Group at facebook.com/groups/narcissistapocalypse Join our Youtube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpTIgjTqVJa4caNWMIAJllA If you're looking for a a therapist or coach that understands you, come to our directory at https://abusetherapy.org If you want to be a guest on our show, go to https://narcissistapocalypse.com
