Episode 2: Boundaries and Jurisdiction

In this episode of the Splitsville podcast, host Alesha Walker, a Texas family law attorney, speaks with guest "Rachel" (a pseudonym) about her emotionally charged and strategically complex custody battle across state lines. After her breakup with "Ross," the father of her daughter, Rachel faced jurisdictional challenges when he filed for custody in Nebraska while she had returned to Texas following her mother’s sudden death. Alesha and Rachel recount the legal maneuvers used to establish Texas jurisdiction, the emotional toll of temporary custody arrangements, and Ross’s manipulative behavior during litigation. The episode sheds light on the importance of legal awareness, boundary-setting in high-conflict co-parenting, and how Rachel ultimately found her footing as the child’s primary caregiver in Texas.
