If you’ve ever thought “how the fuck did that happen” as you walked out of the Australian Family Law system and losing everything, while watching your psychopathic ex get away with the boys club trifecta of perjury, contempt, and not coughing up their financials til you’re broke, homeless, and probably couch surfing, then boy have you come to the right place! Strap on your fuck it attitude, and settle in to find out what your lawyer never told you…be prepared to feel very ducking angry 😡 and then share this with everyone you know that needs these words of hard fought wisdom.
