Season 2 – Episode 7: Navigating Family Court as a Pro Se Litigant

 

Do you think representing yourself in family court is an uphill battle or a strategic advantage? Well, it’s both—and more. In this episode, I’m going to uncover the nuances of navigating family court as a pro se or self-represented litigant. I’ll dive deep into the concept of pro se representation, sharing the difference between those who choose to represent themselves and those who are forced into it.

 

From the personal toll it can take to the systemic challenges you’ll face, I’m offering guidance on maneuvering through family court without formal legal representation. But remember, this content is here to support you, not replace legal advice.
