Marilyn York is a certified family law specialist and an award-winning Family Law Attorney, who, together with her incredible team, focuses on representing men while exclusively practicing family law. Her firm is Nevada’s Only Men’s Rights Family Law Firm. The reason Marilyn decided to only represent men in family court is that they are underrepresented and often lose custody of their children for no other reason other than their sex. 

Last year, Marilyn had a Ted X talk that went viral, with almost 5 million views, where she breaks down what she believes is a massive problem with family court and the biases that men face there. 

Marilyn speaks her mind unapologetically, which as you can imagine, has gotten her some unfavorable responses on the internet. She is also the funniest lawyer I've ever talked to - and could easily launch her own hit tv show. 

Marilyn and I discussed: 

• Why family court almost always favors the mother
• Why her representing men is deemed controversial 
• How accurately the movies depict courts
• How humor helps diffuse situations
• Who comes up with the idea for her ads?
• Why women can have a baby and not tell the father
• Why she understands men better than most women
• Potentially starting a travel show in the future

And much more...

My Take: Life isn't as binary as we would like it to be. While men may have some advantages in some areas, women have some advantages in different areas. This notion that men have it all, or have everything easy, is both ridiculous and factually incorrect. Let's not paint half the demographic as anything; let's judge people by actions and merits, not by gender or race.
