Hostile divorce with a BPD malicious mom.

We're almost two years since she did the stereotypical false OP to kick me out and then file a few weeks later. My attorney has convinced me to play the long game and give her rope to make mistakes and act crazy.

We've deposed her twice, once about a year ago and again about two months ago. Filmed both times. She's an Adderall addict and was arrogant and over confident both times. My attorney trapped her multiple times and we got some very useful footage for her psych eval and the inevitable trial.

After almost two years, I finally got notified I'm going to be deposed. The judge said we're already past her threshold for time and if we can't settle, she's going to set a trial date. We have a hearing in less than a month and I guess stbxw decided to pay up and have me deposed while she still has the chance.

My attorney has been challenging her attorney to depose me for a while now, and we've wanted it so I can go on the record and challenge a lot of the false accusations stbxw has made. My attorney has encouraged me to "take control of the conversation' and use the opportunity to show teeth to her attorney, and basically shit all over her case against me. Reason being it could help her attorney to realize trial will be bad for my stbxw and will increase the likelihood he will lean on stbxw to settle and avoid a trial since a trial would go bad for her.

Has anybody had a similar experience? I don't want to come across as hostile, but I'm pretty witty and her attorney is definitely a nearly comical sleazy morbidly obese type lawyer. I sometimes struggle to fall asleep at night because my mind starts thinking of covertly antagonistic comments I can make to get under his skin and throw him off his game.
