3 Things To Consider During Your Child Custody Case:
1. Stay Humble Online
Custody hearings and negotiations don’t have to turn into custody battles! The last thing you want is for a post, tweet, or status to be shown in court. A social media post might be relatively tame but it can be spun and put into the wrong context in court. One bad post and the judge in your case might be looking at you in a completely different light. Staying humble online, not showing off fancy jewelry, expensive outfits, or a big night out, might save you a lot of headaches down the road.
2. Don’t Start Dating
Meeting someone new and dating is not something that exclusively happens online but we recommend waiting to get out there again until after a divorce and child custody case is completed. Online dating profiles can be misrepresented in court.
3. Don’t Badmouth
Venting or badmouthing your ex, their friends, or their family is definitely something you want to avoid. The other side might present this in court as an example of bad parenting or instability. Even if you block or delete your Ex from your online profiles your posts can still be found. It’s tempting to tell the world the reasons you had to end your marriage but we suggest putting that off while the process is ongoing. Heck! Even after it’s finished, you should STILL not post your reasons for the world to see.
