It is a satire from someone who just as sick of the system as we are.  At the top of the home page is the following statement:

"Lisa Scott is a family law attorney based in Bellevue, Washington. Tired of having her stuff rejected by elitist bar publications and politically-correct newspapers, she decided to start her own website. Co-founder of TABS: Taking Action Against Bias in the System, she has been fighting for equal justice and gender equality in the family courts for years. Lisa hopes you enjoy the humor, satire, absurdity, and occasional seriousness contained on this site. And be sure to give us your contributions on the Blog."

Although I do have to say it is scary that most of her "instructional" tutorials could easily be used by vindictive ex's to work the system even more.

I find it interesting, your thoughts on this site. She has slammed "Fatherhood" directly. Posting articles by radical feminists. Lisa even goes as far as riping into the statistics on DV.

The very sad side to this, is women use it all the time in court. Her "instructional" turtorials ARE easily being used by vindictive ex's to work the system.

And I found no "gender equality" in her humor or satire

You're mixing up two different people.  Lisa Scott is a lawyer with an appraently strange sense of humor.  I really think she's for equal rights, but is trying to demonstrate it through satire.  Liz Kates is a lawyer from Florida who has posted many articles that are derogatory towards fathers rights.
