Kate Anthony was settling into the warm sand on a Mexico beach when an email landed in her inbox. She was on vacation, but the note, from one of her clients, caught her attention.
The woman was in the throes of a messy divorce with her husband, and she’d just come across distressing material from his phone on their shared iCloud.
“My client had some shit come down,” she says. They hopped on a 20-minute call where Anthony explained that it wasn’t something she should take to her lawyer because it wouldn’t help the contentious custody proceedings.
“What you do have is a lot of information that he probably doesn’t want in the public record, and so you might have some information that you can use to bargain and leverage down the line to keep yourself out of court tomorrow,” she told her.
