At the Divorce Hearing They Were Certain I’d Leave With Nothing — I Handed the Judge a Sealed Envelope
I had not planned, when I started building that binder in the dark, to build a career out of it.
But somewhere in that year of patient investigation, I had discovered a thing about myself that a decade of being told I was helpless had hidden even from me: that I was good at this.
Very good.
That the same careful, methodical, undismissable work that had saved me could save other people too — the other quiet spouses sitting across dinner tables from confident liars, certain something was wrong and unable to prove it.
So I built a firm to do that very thing.
