Number 5: The silent treatment.
Narcissists love attention. They also hate to be ignored, disregarded, and made to feel unloved. This is why silent treatment is the best way to destroy a narcissist in court. This tactic is the best because it is something they love to use on people but hate being used on them. It leaves them craving to know what is going through your head, if you still love them or not, if you are thinking of them, or maybe even if you are telling other people about them. If you do not give in to their drama, it can cause distress and narcissistic rage.
Making a narcissist feel the same way that they have made you feel can help the lawyers break the narcissist down. They are not used to being out of control, and the silent treatment denies them what they want attention potentially leading to an outburst. The narcissist will yell at the victim in court or tell them, “This wouldn’t have happened if you had just listened to me and not acted out like I told you not to!” This will show the narcissist is in control of the relationship normally and that the victim is telling the truth.

Narcissists get angry when they think they are losing control of a situation, so losing their significant other in front of many people can take a toll on their self-esteem and their ability to stay cool. They no longer feel as confident in themselves when they see you are growing confident.
They live off of you bowing down to them, and when you show the judge and jury that you are in charge and fighting back, they can see a change in the behavior of the narcissist. They can appear as snippy, talkative, and with a conflicted tone of voice. Lawyers want you to know how to destroy a narcissist in court by guiding you and training you on what kind of tones to use, body language to exhibit, and how to answer things correctly.
