    SEE THE LINKS BELOW!

    In this Episode 26, PART TWO, Recorded on 2/19/2021, Kevin, Barry and special guest Daniel J. Florey open up the box, spread the pieces on the floor, and attempt to solve a very-difficult puzzle -- one that often arises in custody and visitation disputes:

    What if the child is (reportedly or actually) refusing to spend time with the other parent?

    • What if there's no evidence of danger?
    • What if one parent is just trying to hurt or dispose of the other parent?
    • Who should anyone believe?   
    • Should the child have a say?  How much?  
    • What about an attorney appointed to represent the child?  
    • What can be done to fix the situation?   Is there hope?

    SEE THE LINKS BELOW!

    "E-filing" is short for 'electronic filing' of legal documents with the Cook County (Illinois) Clerk of Circuit Court.   It's now required, unless you obtain a waiver.   

    But there's hope:  E-filing can be done from the comfort of home, with just a computer, an internet connection and a credit or debit card. 

    IF you can figure it out!

    In this Episode 25, Recorded on 2/1/2021, Kevin, Barry and special guest Drew conduct a somewhat-incisive and occasionally-helpful discussion of E-filing. 

    Have hope!  You can do this!

    Do you suspect that a person has been arrested?  Convicted?  Required to register as a sex offender or violent criminal?  Is your ex's new boyfriend or girlfriend a risk to your children?  How about this "nice" person you just met?  Is there something more you should know?  How about your past troubles?  Are you destined to live with your mistakes forever?

    Did you know that a free website shows you names and pictures of everyone arrested in Chicago since January, 2014?

    Today, in PART ONE of Episode 24, guest Attorney Marjie Nielsen joins host Attorneys Barry C. Boykin and Kevin R. Johnson as they walk down the stairs holding a flashlight, jangle their keys, and unlock the rusty cell door to some surprising knowledge.
