Together, Billie and Maleah explore:
The unique challenges autistic parents and children face in family court
How to prepare autistic clients for the witness stand
Building trust between attorney and client to enhance communication and advocacy
The importance of educating judges and the legal system about autism
Strategies to avoid litigation when possible—and how to show up confidently when court is unavoidable
