Surviving Custody Battles with a Narcissistic Ex: Legal Tips and Emotional Support

Episode Overview

  • The importance of forming alliances and seeking a support network
  • Challenges of proving coercive control and gathering evidence
  • The detrimental impact of the DARVO tactic
  • Legal strategies for preserving relationships with children
  • The necessity of transparency with legal professionals
I think other than to document everything, because especially courts and with having less experience in dealing with CPS, because that's usually done with an individual directly rather than through their attorneys in most circumstances, unless it spirals out of control, is to keep notes, even if they're marks on a calendar that indicates something because the more thorough you are with the notes and practices that you keep of everything that's occurred the more believable story is going to be.
Child custody battles are tough enough, but throw a narcissistic co-parent into the mix, and it can feel like an impossible task. In this eye-opening episode of 'Narcissistic Abuse Rehab', host Manya Wakefield sits down with attorney Derek Jacques, a renowned expert in divorce and child custody cases. Jacques has earned accolades for his legal prowess, and he's here to share his invaluable advice for those grappling with a manipulative ex-partner.
The conversation kicks off with Jacques emphasizing the importance of forming alliances and seeking a solid support network. He dives into the nitty-gritty of documenting evidence and the uphill battle of proving coercive control in court. Listeners will also learn about the DARVO tactic—where the abuser Denies, Attacks, and Reverses Victim and Offender roles—and how it can derail your case if you're not prepared.
Throughout the episode, Jacques offers practical legal strategies and stresses the importance of transparency with your legal team. Manya and Derek also discuss the emotional toll these battles can take and why self-care is crucial during this challenging time. If you're in the thick of a custody dispute with a narcissistic ex, this episode is packed with insights that could make all the difference.
