Frequently Asked Question: What is the best way to respond to multiple false accusations of abuse, filed by multiple sources including the child?
While this is clearly overwhelming, I believe that the most successful response is to use the clearly false accusations as examples of how the alienating parent is purposefully targeting yourself as a strategy to win the custodial dispute.
Once an accusation has been made, investigated & determined to be without merit, it is often forgotten and minimized. I believe that this however is naive, since even false allegations of abuse never really go away. They tend to leave an atmosphere of suspicion or at least doubt, about the Target Parent.
Since court files become very thick, and judges rotate, such allegations, false as they may be, tend to still color the feeling of the case.
I believe that this is best handled by assembling all of these false claims into a clear pattern, and representing it to the court as the alienating parents attempt to vilify, set up & eventually eliminate the targeted parent.
When the Judge begins to realize that such actions are basically attempts to defraud the court, they begin to see such allegations, and the entire case, very differently.
