Judge Gordon Murray Featured on The GoodDadAct Show, Talks Fatherhood, Fairness, and the Future of Families

What happens when a judge, a dad, and a justice advocate all sit in the same chair? If you’re Judge Gordon Murray, it’s the same person.

A few weeks ago, Judge Murray was a featured guest on The GoodDadAct Show, a platform dedicated to uplifting fatherhood, exploring the rights of dads, and sparking dialogue around family court reform. The conversation covered everything from parental rights and child support systems to the emotional toll of custody battles. But it wasn’t just about the law. It was about life.

Judge Murray didn’t hold back. He shared insights from the bench, yes, but he also shared perspective from the heart. “Being a father informs me how I serve,” he said. “It reminds me that every case is more than paperwork. It’s someone’s real life, with real kids, real stakes, and real love on the line.”

The episode took a thoughtful look at what fairness really means in family law, not in theory, but in practice. The host and Judge Murray talked openly about systemic gaps, emotional blind spots in litigation, and how community support can help bridge both.

There were laughs. There were moments of pause. There was truth.

Interestingly, one of the most powerful moments came when Judge Murray reflected on a father who appeared in his courtroom, nervous and unsure, but trying. “I don’t believe anyone should have to prove they deserve to care,” he said. “We’re not grading our parents. We’re trying to guide them.”

The response to the episode was immediate. Comments poured in from parents who felt seen, heard, and respected. For many, it was the first time they’d heard a judge speak publicly and compassionately about what fatherhood means in today’s legal landscape.

This wasn’t just another guest appearance. It was a reminder of why Judge Murray showed up. As a judge. As a father. As someone who believes justice begins at home.
