If you've just been served, don’t panic—know what to look for. In this episode, Tracey B breaks down the essential elements to examine when you receive a legal document, motion, or petition in a family court case. 

Whether you're the petitioner or respondent, it's critical to understand the procedural, factual, and substantive grounds on which motions are built. Tracey walks you through the top things to watch out for to protect your rights and respond effectively—especially if you're representing yourself in court. 

We’ll discuss: 
 ✅ The importance of reviewing the court caption for accuracy
 ✅ How to identify whether a motion is procedural or substantive
 ✅ Strategic ways to buy time when errors are found
 ✅ When to consider a legal consultation (and when you might not need one)
 ✅ How to spot misleading or irrelevant “evidence” in attached exhibits
 ✅ Why emotional manipulation is common—and how to stay focused 

🎧 Tune in now and learn how to audit legal documents like a pro so you don’t miss critical deadlines or fall for common courtroom tricks.
