About this course
When you’re splitting from a disordered husband or wife, the first thing to understand is that your soon-to-be ex feels absolutely no obligation to be fair. Therefore, you must know what to expect and take steps to protect yourself financially when divorcing a sociopath.
The lies and manipulation that you saw in your marriage will continue, and probably escalate. Your marital assets may disappear. Your ex may suddenly claim poverty. You may also discover that he or she has engaged in deception, theft and fraud —with you and your family as the primary target.
You need to know what to expect and how to prepare, so you can protect yourself financially when divorcing a sociopath. If you’re considering divorce but haven’t yet filed, plan before you make a move. If your divorce is underway and you are shocked by what you’ve seen so far, educate yourself about the financial games sociopaths play so you can take back your power.

- Understanding the sociopath’s objective: Winning
- What should you fight for, and what can you let go?
