What family law attorneys know about marriage that you don't.

"Our profession is so lucrative because people don't get informed what they're signing up for."

In this episode:

• The 10-year rule that changes everything in California
• Why a $500K divorce bill is more common than you think
• What divorce lawyers actually advise their own friends
• Why your prenup might be worthless in a California court

Diana Romanov grew up watching her parents divorce each other five times across three countries. She went on to pass one of the hardest bar exams in the world — Germany's, where 70% fail and you only get two shots — and built her own family law practice from nothing after the 2008 crash.

Elizabeth Yang sits down with Diana for an honest conversation between two divorce attorneys who've both been through it themselves. No sugarcoating, no legal jargon — just the truth about marriage, divorce, and everything no one tells you before you sign.

For female attorneys thinking about going solo — Diana and Elizabeth both built their own firms from nothing. This episode covers what no one tells you about starting a law practice: finding clients when you have none, surviving a recession as a new firm, and why the women who bet on themselves are the ones still standing.
