Barry Boykin, Family Law Attorney discussed the topic of communicating with your ex, even if you don’t live together.
Boykin, of Chicago Legal Clinic, Chicago, Illinois also spoke about why being a Family Law Attorney drives his passion for helping people to learn how to communicate better for the well-being of their children.
When asked to share some of the biggest myths about communicating with ex-partners, Boykin said, “The first myth is the idea that every case is a win or lose situation. In reality, the goal in many cases would be, how could we come up with a win-win scenario? Also, in the family law area, there’s another myth where people believe they have to show the other parent to be unfit which often creates a kind of ‘anything you can do, I can do better’ competition.
