We need bias training for legal professionals, particularly judges, so survivors can feel more confident in seeking support and protection in the justice system. So many survivors say the trauma of court was horrific- many say it was as bad as the abuse they sought to escape.…
I represented a mother, a victim of rape and domestic abuse by her ex-husband. He sought to present himself as her victim. He claimed the mother ‘influenced’ (or 'alienated') the children against him, but the court found all the allegations the father made about her to be…
I represented a mother who was raped by her ex-husband. He tried to convince the court he was a victim of domestic abuse and parental alienation. This case is an example of abusive men using ‘parental alienation’ to torment and frighten victims. It is DARVO. By @hansummers
The president of the Family Division gave evidence to the HoC justice select committee earlier this week and was asked about the concept of parental alienation as well as the family court's use of unregulated psychologists as expert witnesses. Here are some highlights. 🧵👇
Overturning Weinstein's conviction is devastating for survivors. There's an evident pattern of powerful men evading the consequences of their actions. Where is the fairness and justice for victims who will now have to give evidence all over again?

The increasing trend of alleging ‘parental alienation’ to deflect allegations of rape or coercive control is deeply concerning, and I’ve represented numerous mothers in cases where this has occurred. I also represented the same mother in her successful appeal where it was…
Excellent reporting from @hansummers, brilliant representation from @DrProudman & judgement from Judge Middleton-Roy, who found the father was DARVO'ing the mother by claiming the pseudo-concept of 'parental alienation'. F was supported by Dads Unlimited. thebureauinvestigates.com/stories/2024-0…
A judge described a father who raped his wife & controlled & intimidated his family by filming them via a body-cam as "reprehensible". The man who accused his partner of parental alienation tried to convince the court he was a victim of domestic abuse. rb.gy/hwwrju
The case is a further example of abusive men using the concept of parental alienation to deflect allegations of rape or coercive and controlling behaviour. I represented a mother in another such case in which she asserted @MyCafcass caused her child harm by supporting her…
The father was represented at the hearing by @Dadsunltd, a charity that supports male victims of domestic abuse. However, the court found no evidence the mother had been abusive. In fact, the court found he raped and abused the mother. The father, who was ordered to pay more…
In 2023 I represented the mother in a successful appeal of a decision by a judge to involve a psychological expert in her case. The designated children’s guardian @MyCafcass had submitted an application for new expert evidence following the father’s allegations of alienation. By…
The mother’s barrister, Dr Charlotte Proudman, submitted that the father sought throughout his evidence to “deflect or deny, to attack the mother and to seek to reverse the role of victim and offender”. 🔗 theguardian.com/law/2024/apr/2…
I represented the mother in the first case that refers to DARVO. The father accused the mother of ‘parental alienation’ and false allegations — in actual fact, he had raped, abused, gaslit and controlled her, as well as abusing the children. He had to pay her £50,000 in costs.
I represented a mother who was raped by her ex-husband. He tried to convince the court he was a victim of domestic abuse and parental alienation. This case is an example of abusive men using ‘parental alienation’ to torment and frighten victims. It is DARVO. By @hansummers

Insightful post. Describes the reality in family courts i described in my report on #parentalalienation last year. Good to hear Sir McFarlane call a spade a spade. This is not limited to the UK but a worldwide phenomenon.
