How can social media affect a divorce or child custody case? Oh let me count the ways! For starters, social medial can help lead to a divorce or custody dispute. People post things that they don’t think will be a problem or don’t think their spouse of parent of their child will see and all of the sudden it creates a serious problem in the relationship. Sometimes a spouse reconnects with a person from their past and this connection turns into an affair. The possibilities are endless. While these scenarios seem pretty obvious, what people don’t always consider is how posts from before they are facing an active divorce or custody case can come back as evidence once litigation begins. That post with your arm around someone at a party, or the photo of you doing shots of tequila at a bar, all of the sudden are being used in court as evidence of an affair or your unfitness to care for a child. The divorce and custody lawyers at The Siemon Law Firm have vast amounts of experience with using and defending against social medial posts as evidence in court.
