Think only billionaires and celebrities need prenuptial agreements? Think again.

A recent Forbes article looks to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's marriage as an example of why prenups can be a smart financial planning tool for couples at all income levels. From protecting businesses and inheritances to clarifying debt responsibilities and avoiding costly disputes down the road, a well-drafted prenup isn't about planning for divorce. Instead, it's about creating clarity and peace of mind before saying ""I do.""

Jimmy shares how Gretchen Boger helped change the direction of his custody case. His review highlights her preparation, confidence, and strong courtroom presence.

""THE ATTORNEY WHO CHANGED THE DIRECTION OF MY CASE.

When I hired Gretchen Boger, I hadn’t seen or even spoken to my daughter in over three months. I was also facing criminal allegations that were ultimately dismissed and an Army investigation that was later closed with no adverse action. Before hiring Gretchen, my previous attorney had been unable to get me any contact with my daughter. It honestly felt like every door had been shut.

The very first time Gretchen stepped into court for me, everything changed. She immediately secured my first FaceTime visits with my daughter after months of complete silence. For the first time in months, I walked out of court believing I was going to get my daughter back. What impressed me most wasn’t just the result, it was her presence. Gretchen carried herself with confidence, authority, and complete command of the courtroom. There wasn’t a single moment where I questioned whether she was in control. She was prepared, direct, and relentless. You could feel that she was there to fight for her client.

Gretchen didn’t finish my custody journey, but she changed its direction. She set the foundation that made everything else possible. My only regret is that I didn’t hire her first. If you’re facing a difficult custody case and the odds feel stacked against you, Gretchen is the attorney you want standing next to you. I will always be grateful for what she did for me and my family. — Jimmy""

According to The New York Times, a new investigation into Los Angeles school policies involving transgender students is raising major questions about parental rights and the role schools play in family decision-making. These issues intersect with legal concepts many parents already face in custody and co-parenting disputes: who has the right to make decisions for a child.

As laws and policies continue to evolve, parents navigating divorce or custody matters may find themselves confronting disagreements over medical decisions, identity issues, and school disclosures.
