  • Why Do Divorce Clients Deceive Their Attorneys? The Most Common Lies, Red Flags, and What They Might Cost You with Attorney Augustine Osuala

    Why Do Divorce Clients Deceive Their Attorneys? The Most Common Lies, Red Flags, and What They Might Cost You with Attorney Augustine Osuala
    3 Nov 2026
    Every divorce attorney has had the client who becomes the biggest obstacle in their own case. Attorney Augustine Osuala of Nebraska Legal Group, an 11-year veteran and former collegiate football player who worked as a public defender and civil prosecutor before joining the firm, explains how he spots problem clients in the first consult, starting with one question: “What if the shoe was on the other foot?” He breaks down why “narcissist” has become a divorce buzzword, how to tell genuine controlling behavior from a person in survival mode, and what happens when a client spends 80 percent of the effort to gain 2 percent of the outcome. Osuala also explains why requests that seem reasonable, like drug tests, evaluations of the other parent, or exclusive use of the home, can destroy a client’s credibility, and how to recognize when custody concerns are being weaponized, especially when a new partner enters the picture mid-case. The conversation covers the lies attorneys hear most, including minimizing drug and alcohol use, one question that gets clients to reveal what they have been holding back, and when it is time for an attorney to walk away. Osuala closes with a clear reminder for anyone starting a divorce: the process is never fully in your control, and the most honest feedback you will get may come from your own lawyer.

  • Custody Wars: Why High-Conflict Cases Get So Ugly and How to Keep Yours From Spiraling with Attorney Lindsay Belmont

    Custody Wars: Why High-Conflict Cases Get So Ugly and How to Keep Yours From Spiraling with Attorney Lindsay Belmont
    20 Oct 2026
    In a custody case, a good legal outcome can still fall short of protecting a family. Attorney Lindsay Belmont of Nebraska Legal Group, who has spent over a decade in private practice and gravitates toward the most contentious custody cases, explains why fear of the unknown drives so much conflict between divorcing parents and what judges want to see from them instead. She breaks down how courts handle parental alienation, including a case where she proved everything on paper and the relationship still did not recover, and why she argues that neither mom nor dad should be presumed to deserve a particular custody arrangement. Belmont walks through how a child’s age shapes a parenting schedule, from a 2-2-3 rotation for young children to week on, week off for older kids, and what happens when a teenager refuses to follow a court order, including a judge’s blunt question to a father who wanted his 16-year-old forced to comply. The conversation also covers when courts interview children, why counseling for kids can be ordered over a parent’s objection, and why a CPS finding of “unfounded” or “insufficient evidence” is not the end of the road when abuse is alleged. Belmont closes with a candid look at whether divorce hurts kids and what she most wants parents to remember when the dust settles.

  • Dirty Money Tricks in Divorce: What Spouses Hide and How Attorneys Find It with Attorney Sarah Preisinger

    Dirty Money Tricks in Divorce: What Spouses Hide and How Attorneys Find It with Attorney Sarah Preisinger
    7 Oct 2026
    Spouses who claim they have no money often have a very detailed paper trail saying otherwise. Attorney Sarah Preisinger of Nebraska Legal Group draws on 17 years of experience, including time as a district director in child support enforcement, to break down the financial games people play in divorce and how attorneys uncover them. She explains how self-employed spouses use business write-offs to shrink their income on paper, why assets mysteriously end up in a mother's or girlfriend's name, and what happened when a spouse wrote herself a $50,000 check days before filing. Preisinger shares what she has found in discovery, from monthly payments to a Texas inmate and a stream of psychics, to Affirm and Klarna debts quietly piling up, and explains why consumer AI tools are not private and what that means for anyone tempted to ask a chatbot how to hide assets. The conversation also covers what actually works when a parent refuses to pay support, including tax intercepts, driver's license suspensions, and a passport revocation that produced an $80,000 payment, along with practical advice on bonuses, Venmo income, and why a credit report is one of the most overlooked tools in any divorce.
