This is exactly right. True story about how divorce lawyers for women operate:
Friend has a very unhappy marriage. She's butt ugly and he married her because he was lonely/desperate but she's somehow convinced she settled and can do better so she wants out.
She tells him one day she can't stand living in the shithole town he chose because it's where his family lives. Harps and nags on him endlessly until he agrees to buy a gun to protect them both. He's a pacifist and never liked guns, but eventually figures better safe than sorry and buys one in his name.
Comes home one day and is immediately arrested outside his house. Turns out the wife called the police hysterically claiming he threatened to kill her and she think he may have a gun. Police do a search of the house and of course find a gun, check the registration and see he recently purchased it. Wife also has photos of self-inflicted bruises and marks that she's carefully prepared and been secretly taking for weeks prior.
This triggers automatic domestic abuse policies, automatic restraining order, etc so he loses rights to stay at his own house and access everything anything in community property. Meanwhile he is in jail until family manages to bail him out. Served with divorce papers immediately after bailing out, next call he makes discovers she'd drained every account and put everything in her name prior to filing so it doesn't technically count as absconding. Now he has to live on a relative's sofa and try to hire an attorney with no money.
He goes to court and first exhibit by wife's lawyer are his arrest records and domestic abuse charges, so judge is immediately hostile, calls him all sorts of names and denies all motions his lawyer presents. In the end months later, she gets the house, the car, alimony that's practically all of what he now earns (because it was based on what he made during the dot-com boom), and every possession except "personal" ones like pictures and clothes.
The kicker is her telling all her friends that these tactics, every one of them, were suggested by her divorce attorney and she couldn't recommend anyone more highly. Her attorney basically gave her a step-by-step playbook of actions to take to rig the entire process in her favor because the wife had the advantage of knowing she was going to end the marriage before he did.
