About The Respondent: Exposing The Cartel Of Family Law
Product Description With The Respondent: Exposing the Cartel of Family Law, Hollywood veteran Greg Ellis delivers a gripping, unvarnished first-person account of family breakdown and the social, political, and legal forces that are fueling this national health emergency. It further exposes and condemns a gender bias that presumes that fathers are less effective caregivers. Family breakdown is the single greatest threat to American society. Every day, more than 4,000 children lose a parent because of our archaic and inhumane family-court system. Every day, ten divorced men commit suicide. And now, one in three children in our country are without their father. The Respondent is Ellis's personal story about a Hollywood dream razed by internal and external forces. Part memoir, part meditation, and part manifesto, it's a timely and heartrending portrait of perhaps the most misunderstood aspect of the American legal system. Through its candor and moral strength, The Respondent offers guidance and hope. As such, it's an indispensable read for not only parents enduring the grief of child separation, but all interested in learning about the gross overreach and unrelenting brutality of family law. Review "I encourage you to read Greg Ellis's book, The Respondent, a fresh and updated take from an American divorce court, where some things have changed (now men are seeking-and in some instances even gaining-sole custody of their children, either justifiably or as the result of the malignant parental alienation that plagued them for so long) and some things are, unconscionably, the same. Divorce court, divorce mediation, custody evaluations, forensic accountings . . . It's all a foreign land to most people and one where you can easily lose your sanity coming to terms with the senseless rules that govern there, rules that will potentially affect the rest of your life. You will need some help. This book is that help." --Alec Baldwin, three-time Primetime Emmy winner "The Respondent is both a chilling reminder and essential therapy for anyone navigating the recrimination and trauma that is modern American divorce. It is also both diagnosis and prescription, mediating on the depths of the crisis and the way out. Greg Ellis sets the record straight and shatters the myths of divorce court. This is Greg's story. It's your story. And it's our story. If you're trapped in the dungeon that is the family court system, The Respondent should be your constant companion." --Johnny Depp, three-time Academy Award nominee "The Respondent is not a story of revenge or even a salve to cope with what remains during and after the inscrutable, dark back alleys of family law and divorce. Instead, with the author's humility, unabashed self-awareness, noble masculinity, and a final demonstration of the holiest, truest form of selflessness, Greg Ellis leaves readers looking forward. And what comes next is life. The Respondent will likely save lives-not just the bodies of men, but their spirit to survive. And like the author himself, thrive." --Melanie Notkin, entrepreneur and author About the Author Greg Ellis is a published author, television director, Annie Award-nominated voice artist, and Emmy Award-nominated actor.
