How Can Social Media Impact My Divorce Case

Social media can impact your divorce case in several ways. First, anything that you post online is admissible in court. It also is subject to discovery, which means a formal request from the other party to disclose the contents of all your social media accounts. One of the things we tell people with your social media is to avoid doing anything in those accounts that would reflect negatively on you in court.

That would include negative comments, even if they're true about your spouse being posted online. It's important to remember that your photos that get posted could be used, and your location check ins could be used against you in court as well. So what should I do with my social media? One thing would be to change your privacy settings to make it to where it's just you, and maybe a few select friends and family that can see your accounts.
