Leaving an abuser doesn’t always end the fight—it can follow you straight into court. ⚖️
For many survivors, family court, custody battles, and protection orders become new places where control and intimidation show up. That’s why trauma-informed legal help matters—because “normal” legal strategies don’t always work when coercive control and post-separation abuse are in play.
The tough part? Cost. Financial abuse can leave people with little or nothing—but options like legal aid, referrals, limited-scope help, and survivor-informed guidance can make representation possible when it feels out of reach 💜
If you’ve been through this (or supported someone who has), what’s one thing you wish more people understood about navigating court after abuse? Share in the comments or pass this along to someone who might need it. 🧭
