Documentation is everything in family law. Keep a journal, save all communications, and don't put anything in writing that you wouldn't want a judge to read.

Family law is one of the most state-specific areas of law. What works in California won't work in Texas. Make sure you're getting advice from an attorney licensed in your state.
