Very often, parents involved in custody disputes will allege that the other parent is engaging in behavior that is detrimental to their child. Unfortunately, these allegations are often raised to provide one of the parents with a strategic advantage in the dispute. The parent who is seeking that strategic advantage will often allege that the other parent has engaged in parental alienation which, rightly or wrongly, can be a powerful tool in the custody dispute.
Because of the increased focus on alienation and its inconsistent application in courthouses around the country, it is imperative that both practitioners and parties have an understanding of the current legal environment governing such claims.
