Family lawyer and reform advocate Maryam Manteghi returns to expose how judicial bias and outdated court practices are systematically failing abuse survivors. She reveals why educated victims face unique challenges, how false equivalencies between mothers and fathers ignore basic science, and why the groundbreaking Alawalia case could revolutionize financial justice for domestic violence survivors. From strategic timeline building to leveraging tort law, Maryam shares advanced tools every advocate should know to build stronger cases and push for trauma-informed reform.
