Winning High-Conflict Custody Battles is the book that terrified, exhausted parents reach for when a custody dispute stops being a disagreement and turns into war. If your ex lies easily, thrives on drama, weaponizes your child’s love, or keeps dragging you back into court, this book shows you how to protect your children and your case with calm, documented truth instead of panic or rage.

Written by nationally recognized trial lawyer and award‑winning author Stephen Rue, Esq., this field manual distills nearly four decades of front‑line family law experience and more than 5,000 cases into clear, step‑by‑step strategies any parent can use right now—even in the middle of an active, high‑conflict case. You’ll see exactly how judges actually think, which “best interest” factors truly matter, and how to present your story in a way busy courts can quickly understand and trust.

Inside, you will learn how to:

• Quickly stabilize the first 72 hours when your case suddenly explodes—false allegations, police calls, emergency filings, and all.

• Recognize toxic and narcissistic patterns, stop being blindsided by your ex’s behavior, and start accurately predicting their next move.

• Communicate like the parent judges believe, using BIFF‑style texts and emails that shut down drama and create clean, admissible evidence instead of screenshots that hurt you.

• Document safety concerns the right way—texts, emails, photos, school and medical records, police reports, and incident logs—so your evidence is taken seriously instead of dismissed as “he said, she said.”

• Protect your child from emotional damage, parental alienation, and coercive control while still appearing child‑centered, reasonable, and focused on their long‑term well‑being.

• Work effectively with lawyers, therapists, custody evaluators, and guardians ad litem so they see you as the safe, stable parent in the room.

• Prepare for mediation, hearings, and trial—how to testify, answer tough questions, avoid traps, and show up as calm, credible, and consistent.

• Design high‑conflict‑ready parenting plans and schedules that judges trust and that actually work in real life, not just on paper.

• Enforce orders and handle violations without backfiring or looking like the problem parent, even when your ex keeps pushing boundaries.

• Regain control of your mindset, manage anxiety, and stay emotionally steady so you don’t sabotage your own case when the pressure spikes.

This book goes far beyond theory. It includes:

• “The 10 Custody Rules You Must Not Break” that instantly raise your credibility and stop the most common, case‑destroying mistakes parents make under stress.

• A 72‑hour custody triage plan so you always know your next right move in a crisis.

• Practical scripts for high‑conflict emails, texts, and exchanges, so you never again have to guess what to say when you’re triggered.

• Ready‑to‑use documentation and evidence templates, incident logs, and an evidence‑binder structure you can plug your facts into today.

High‑conflict custody is not a fair fight. One parent escalates; one parent stabilizes. You cannot change your ex’s personality, but you can absolutely change how you respond, how you document, how you communicate, and how you show up in front of your judge and every professional on your case.

Winning High-Conflict Custody Battles will not give you legal advice or guarantee a specific outcome—no honest resource can. It will give you something far more powerful:
