QUESTION
Is it possible and legal to disprove the parental alienation?
Asked on Feb 23rd, 2012 on Child Custody - North Carolina
More details to this question:
I had court on Tuesday and there was an order put in place for visitation with my daughter's biological father, who she has not seen in many years, and it was unsupervised. I have made an appointment with a psychiatrist to try and disprove the parental alienation, and I am wondering if we can disprove it. Would a lawyer have enough time to research my case in 1 month, and have time to get some kind of emergency hearings in 1 month?

Parental alienation is when a child expresses unjustified hatred or unreasonably strong dislike of one parent, making access by the rejected parent difficult or impossible. These feeling may be partially a result of comments by the other parent and by the characteristics, such as lack of empathy and warmth, of the rejected parent. Depending on the circumstances of a case, the age of child, the length of time the parent has been absent, and the court's findings of facts and order there may be other steps to take. Whether or not an attorney would have enough time to research a case and get the case on for a hearing, would depend entirely on the attorney and the county where the case is pending. Please consult with an attorney on your specific situation.
