Webinar: Understanding the New FJC Guidance on Child Resistance and Allegations of Alienating Behaviour

5 March 2025 5.30pm Online Register here

Speakers: Dr Jaime Craig, Consultant Clinical Psychological and Adrienne Barnett, Lecturer at Brunel University.

Join us for an insightful webinar exploring the Family Justice Council’s (FJC) latest guidance on responding to a child’s unexplained reluctance, resistance, or refusal to spend time with a parent and allegations of alienating behaviour.

Published in December 2024, this long-awaited guidance aims to bring much-needed clarity and consistency to how courts and practitioners handle these challenging cases. As Sir Andrew McFarlane, President of the Family Division and Chair of the FJC, has acknowledged, this is a complex and polarising issue—one that family law professionals frequently encounter.

The webinar will provide:

A breakdown of the key principles of the new guidance

Practical considerations for legal practitioners and professionals working with families

This is a must-attend event for family law practitioners.
