"High Conflict: Is Connecticut’s family court system ignoring abuse?"
Inside Investigator spoke with Joan Meier and Danielle Pollack highlighting their research and work in the National Family Law Center at GW.
Joan Meier’s 2017 research of family courts' treatment of custody cases involving abuse and alienation claims was quoted by Buzzfeed.
Professor Meier appears in "Allen v. Farrow," a new four-part HBO series documenting the accusation of sexual abuse against actor Woody Allen and the aftermath that followed. In episodes 3 and 4, Professor Meier sheds light on the strategies used by abusers, the "alienation" label often used to deny women's and children's abuse claims, and what is going on in family courts today. Her research, based at GW's National Family Violence Law Center, also provides much of the background for the film.
