IAAPS provides legal information and peer support. IAAPS is not a law firm and cannot provide "reserved legal activities" as defined by the Legal Services Act 2007. This means IAAPS cannot represent you in court or provide formal legal advice.

IAAPS can help you understand the current legal tests for alienating behaviours including the three part test from Re C. IAAPS can guide you through the Five-Factor Model for your own documentation. IAAPS can provide templates for you to use with your own solicitor or when representing yourself. IAAPS can also direct you to other sources of support where appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions

What can I do if my child is refusing to see me?

Start by keeping a calm record of all missed contact. Do not react in anger. Read the free guide on proving alienating behaviours. Documentation is your strongest tool.

What does UK law say about parental alienation?

UK courts use the term "alienating behaviours." The court applies a three part test from the Re C judgment. It is a question of fact for the judge, not a medical diagnosis.

How can I fix this?

There is no quick fix. The best approach is to gather clear evidence, stay calm in all communication, and follow the court process. Free resources show exactly what to do.

Do grandparents have any rights?

Grandparents do not have automatic rights. They usually need "leave of the court" to apply for a Child Arrangements Order. Exceptions apply if the child has lived with the grandparent for at least one year.

What is the Five-Factor Model?

It is a professional framework published in the Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry in 2022. IAAPS provides a free checklist based on this model to help document evidence.
