Show Notes
If your ex’s attorney is loud, aggressive, or constantly stirring up drama, it’s easy to panic. Especially if your attorney is calm, measured, and quiet. You start wondering—am I losing?
In this episode, divorce coach Corey Shapiro breaks down the third divorce attorney style: The Boxer. Not flashy. Not chaotic. But steady, strategic, and ready to strike—only when it counts.
You’ll learn:
What a “Boxer” attorney looks like (and why they might seem disengaged)
Why tactical silence can be stronger than reactive noise
How to know if your attorney is playing defense—or building a quiet offense
What questions to ask if you’re unsure who’s really fighting for you
Power Line:
“You’re not losing. You’re lasting.”
Because lasting takes more strength than lashing out.
Next Steps:
Ask your attorney: Are we being tactical or just quiet?
Get clear on the plan. If they’re prepping depositions, trial outlines, or settlement proposals—they’re moving.
If they’re not? It might be time for a second opinion.
