A few years ago, I got a timeout on FR for expressing my sentiments about family court judges in Indiana.
If only I had heard about Cordell & Cordell, back in the day.
back when I was lawyering, there was one local guy who was starting to specialize in representing fathers/husbands. He was beginning to get a really thriving practice going. A lot of feminist lawyers get into family law, and it has had an enormous effect on every aspect of the field. They just aren’t going to cry/try as much for their male clients. Plus, nobody wants to deal with them. They say/do things that would get a male attorney punched by opposing counsel, or thrown in jail by a judge. Again, actual opposition makes a big difference. Many are used to the guy just rolling over.
FWLIW, I am aware of this issue, and bring it up with and educate others a little about it, due to posts from folks like you, here.
