Yesterday, I traveled two hours to represent my SO’s father in a case in Justice Court, which is ironic becauseone can just about get anything but justice in that kangaroo court. You see, in [...]

Friday was the big day. I was to come face to face with the Cheater. He, of course, had lawyered up and I was ready. He, sadly, folded like a tent and offered to give her half of his earnings. I was expecting that there would be an offer but HALF. [...]
