What happens after the custody battle is over and the challenges keep coming? In this episode of Sidebar Social®, Jennifer L. Grinke and Dana J. Stewart welcome back stepparent Tori Bradbury for an honest conversation about life after a contested custody case.

Four years after the ruling, Tori shares how her family moved from constant tension to a more peaceful home through parallel parenting, firm boundaries, and learning that not every conflict requires a response. Together, they discuss what “high conflict” really means, why maintaining a relationship with your attorney can help long after court ends, and how to keep children from feeling caught between households.

Whether you're a parent, stepparent, or partner navigating a blended family, this episode offers practical insights into protecting your peace, supporting your child, and moving forward when the other household does things differently.

In this episode of Sidebar Social®, Jennifer L. Grinke and Dana J. Stewart sit down with Texas personal injury attorney Scott Snellings, founder of Snellings Law. to talk about what really happens after an accident, and what injured people should know before dealing with an insurance company.

Scott takes us behind the scenes of a personal injury case, from what to do immediately after an accident and dealing with insurance adjusters to hiring an attorney, evaluating a claim, negotiating a settlement, and understanding how personal injury cases actually get resolved. We also tackle some common misconceptions about personal injury lawyers and lawsuits and hear how Scott’s experience earlier in his career defending personal injury claims influences the way he represents injured clients today.

And because this is Sidebar Social®, we bring some family law into the conversation too: If you're married and receive a personal injury settlement in Texas, is the money your separate property or community property? The answer may depend on exactly what the settlement is compensating you for.

Whether you've been injured in an accident, are dealing with an insurance company, or simply want to know what to do if it ever happens to you, this is Personal Injury 101—what every Texan should know after an accident.

What should you do if you're pulled over for suspected DWI in Texas? Should you agree to roadside field sobriety tests? What happens if you refuse? And what exactly are officers looking for when they ask you to walk the line or stand on one leg? In this episode of Sidebar Social®, Jennifer L. Grinke and Dana J. Stewart sit down with veteran criminal defense attorney Bo Kalabus, senior partner at Texas Defense Firm, to break down what really happens during a Texas DWI investigation. Bo walks us through the traffic stop from beginning to end—including field sobriety testing, what happens when someone refuses or fails a test, breath and blood testing, driver's-license consequences, and Administrative License Revocation (ALR) hearings. He also shares practical advice about what drivers should—and shouldn't—do when those flashing lights appear in the rearview mirror. It's an informative, practical conversation about Texas DWI law, your rights during a traffic stop, and the decisions that can have consequences long after the stop is over.
