Family Matters with Justice Harvey Brownstone
Nancy KInney and Justice Brownstone met one another in May, 2009 and began hatching a plan for a show about family law in the Fall of that year; and filmed the first episodes of what became Family Matters with Justice Harvey Brownstone in late March, 2010. Ideally the show will have a more elaborate format; and will eventually be aired on mainstream TV as well as online. But to begin with, the show will be based on a somewhat basic format to keep costs down, allowing actual production of the show, while the larger ideas are developed and the team generates interest in their project. Thanks to new web technologies, the Family Matters team is able to ‘air’ their show while they make bigger plans, bringing knowledge about family law and the justice system to online viewers everywhere.

"I think that websites such as AdviceScene are a logical extension of the more traditional media outlets such as newspapers, TV and radio, where people turn to for information. In my opinion, lawyers who give of their time and expertise to convey important information about the law are acting in the highest traditions of the legal profession, and are to be commended, because they are enhancing access to justice. I hope other judges will follow my lead and do the same." |
