@Mattval 1) Hire a competent and experienced attorney, ideally one known and liked in your family court.
2) Listen to your attorney, you are paying for that time, advice and experience.
3) if you read something that strikes a chord online or in a forum, ask your retained attorney if it applies to you.
4) Any action you take seriously consider running it by your attorney first. Be it moving some of your keep sakes, belongings, etc. out of the marital home, removing yourself from a joint bank account, etc. What seems innocent may be construed in family court as something vindictive or spiteful etc.
5) Keep cool, always be calm, keep good communication with your children and make certain you stress this priority with your attorney.
6) Almost anything potentially is discoverable- phones, email accounts, computers, cameras, etc. So be smart with actions. And if you have anything that could be a potential issue, co sidereal speaking with your attorney on how to handle that as soon as possible.
