About this course
In your dealings with a personality-disordered individual, you’ve learned that this person lies, blames and exaggerates. If you go to court with a sociopath, despite swearing an oath to tell the truth, he or she will continue to lie, blame and exaggerate.
How do you protect yourself? How do you make your case?
In this webinar, you’ll learn how the traits and tactics of disordered individuals typically play out in court. This will enable you to anticipate what your opponent will do so that you will not be blindsided — you’ll be prepared.
You’ll learn remedial tactics that you can take against your opponent, such as educating your attorney about the disorder and using third parties. You’ll also learn how to gather evidence so that you can undermine your opponent’s credibility and show a pattern of abuse.
Finally, you’ll learn strategies to prepare yourself emotionally for your day in court, so that instead of feeling victimized, you’ll feel empowered to pursue the justice that you deserve.

- Typical tactics employed by disordered individuals in court cases
- Measures you can take to combat your opponent’s tactics
- How to expose your opponent’s abuse
- Why you don’t need to prove that your opponent is disordered
- How to prepare yourself for the court battle

How to Navigate a Court Proceeding when the Opposing Party Is a Sociopath or Cluster-B Disordered Individual – $45
Well worth the price and time. Giving me tools to cope.
It helped ease my mind a little bit especially when I was trying to find an attorney who would be a good fit for me.
Did not feel i had learnt much from it given amount i have paid. There are free youtubes I learn more from.
Refreshing to hear an attorney speak from experience. Usually we are trying to educate the “system” and that proves to be frustrating. I’m happy to see more of this getting prepared for and exposed in court.
