I'm dealing with a situation and need some guidance.
parental alienation in custody dispute. I've been dealing with this for about 3 months now and the situation isn't improving.

Am I overthinking this or is this a real legal issue worth pursuing?
I specialize in this area of law. Here's my take on the legal issues.

I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.
Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.
