Custody, Cash and Control

What if the biggest battle of your life came with no instruction manual?

Divorce. Custody. Money. These are not just legal issues—they’re emotional earthquakes that can shatter families. If you feel overwhelmed, blindsided, or afraid of losing everything that matters, you’re not alone.

In Custody, Cash & Control, bestselling lawyer–author Joseph Plazo hands you the map, compass, and flashlight you need to navigate the darkest legal storms of your life. This is not another dry legal textbook. It’s a gripping, story-driven survival guide packed with hidden insights only a seasoned lawyer—and master storyteller—can deliver.

Through real-life cases, decoded legal strategies, and plainspoken advice, you’ll learn:

• Custody Secrets the Court Won’t Tell You: Why “best interest of the child” is not what you think—and how to protect your kids from becoming weapons in a war.

• Money Traps & Financial Warfare: How to safeguard your assets, unmask hidden accounts, and avoid the financial ambushes that devastate families.

• The Power of Strategy: The three types of divorce (and why picking the wrong path costs you years, dollars, and peace of mind).

• Prenups & Postnups Reimagined: Why these aren’t “divorce plans” but tools for radical honesty that can strengthen relationships.

• Co-Parenting Without Chaos: Scripts, checklists, and frameworks to turn high-conflict parenting into calm collaboration.

• When to Fight, When to Settle: How to recognize the tipping point between protecting your future and burning it all down.

• Your New Beginning: How to transform legal heartbreak into the foundation for a stronger, smarter, more secure future.

👉 Think of this book as the “Freakonomics” of family law—where legal jargon becomes stories, strategies, and simple steps you can use immediately.

Whether you’re considering a prenup, staring down divorce papers, or fighting for custody of your children, Custody, Cash & Control is the lifeline that helps you not only survive—but win back clarity, control, and confidence.
