You're probably a bit like "Rob"...

The first thing Rob said to me was, "my wife is a narcissist, and I just found out that she is sleeping with my best friend. I want a divorce!"

Rob's a good guy who has gone through hell.

Understandably, he was a bit of a mess when we first met.

But he's turned it all around and made a great life for himself and his kids.

I'll show you how he did it, and I'll give you ideas for how you can get a fair settlement, too.

"Something's Not Right."

Rob and Sue live in Holmdel, New Jersey with their three kids.

The accounting firm he works for has an office nearby where he could work, but he makes far more money in the city, and living in New Jersey is expensive.

It's a long day, but it allows him to provide his family with a 6-figure income.

Sue stopped working when they had their first child 15 years ago, and she's been a homemaker ever since.

He said that Sue can be self-absorbed, a "know-it-all", controlling, and demanding.

“She's pretty narcissistic" he told me.

A week before he first spoke with me he put a tracking device on Sue's car "....just to make sure that she wasn't cheating.

THE BETRAYAL

That day at 12:42 PM, Rob's life changed forever...
