Award Winning Attorney Talks Custody Battles
Guest Opportunity: Joryn Jenkins —Award Winning Family Lawyer, Legal Strategist and Best Selling Author of many books including “War or Peace (Avoid the Destruction of Divorce Court)”
It is common in traditional divorce cases that someone close to a spouse, patient a parent, search a friend, a new romantic interest, or some other person whom that spouse trusts, influences the case’s outcome.
Some people are incapable of making critical decisions during this stressful process without input from their loved ones and other advocates. Often, these outside influences are beneficial, but, sometimes, outsiders have a harmful impact instead. When a third party becomes involved and trusted, the impact to all parties involved could be detrimental to the case.
Expert Attorney Joryn Jenkins specializes in family law and is willing to share some stories of the toxic outsiders she has had occasion to witness over the years. She also elaborates on the challenges of divorce and explains what to expect legally.
