Parental Alienation

When one parent tries to destroy his or her children´s relationship with the other parent, it is known as parental alienation. Alienation can take many forms. One parent may use grandparents and other relatives to assail the other parent in the children´s eyes. Alienation may also include allegations of neglect, abuse, or mental disorders.

After an 11-day trial in 2005, Bryan L. Salamone & Associates, P.C. received a decision from a Supreme Court judge stating:

"A strong and important factor that must be considered in any custody determination is whether a parent is or may be attempting to alienate a child´s affection for the other parent.  Indeed it has been said that interference with the relationship between the child and the non-custodial parent is an act so inconsistent with the best interests of the child as to raise per se probability that the offending party is unfit to act as a custodial parent."

We are all too familiar with parental alienation and the tactics which result in devastating psychological impact on children. We fight in court, using every means possible including expert testimony from psychologists, to ensure that one parent´s attempts at alienation do not destroy parental relationships or impact custody and visitation disputes.

Protecting children

We have seen parents inflict harm on their children by physical abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, neglect, and dangerous activities/environments. We can help you get your child(ren) away from anything or anyone putting them in danger - even if that is their other parent.

In 2007, we prevailed in a nationally recognized case covered on television and almost all national newspapers including the Associated Press, Daily News, Newsday, NY Post, and the New York Times.  In this case, we successfully obtained safety and security for a teenage girl and we secured custody for the girl's mother, who was courageous enough to fight using our firm to get custody and to prevent harm from being inflicted on her daughter by her daughter's father.
