Lots of men come here asking about what to expect in the courtroom. There's a YouTuber (and activist) named Veterans in Politics who just uploaded almost 30 videos in the last 24 hours. HERE is a link.

Your experience might be much different, but if you're interested in the tempo, the arguments, the language, the procedures, etc., these videos can be interesting. But, be warned, some are slow.

Personally, for me, it hurts to watch some of these. The judge in my case did not care one bit about co-parenting or how I could remain close to my children. He carelessly gave me the minimal standard visitation, and even then, it was unworkable and unreasonable with my schedule. But no one cared. Here, it's amazing to me to see a judge actually care about the dad and his access to his kid, including the nitty-gritty about phone calls, pick-up times, school activities, and so on.

Incredibly, the dad in some of these videos is behind in child support. Instead of focusing on the money (and threats of jail), the judge is actually looking for solutions that work. It really is amazing considering that some judges force their divorces into an old-fashioned 'playbook' that doesn't work and pisses off everyone and hurts kids. Just my two cents.
