SUMMARY:A Lunch and Learn with Dr. Lisa Fontes
DESCRIPTION:Nyack Seaport | 21 Burd St Nyack\, NY \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAfter separation\, domestic abusers often present themselves as concerned\, loving parents seeking legal remedies while actually using the court system to continue harassing and controlling their ex-partners. Domestic abuse does not end with separation. It frequently shifts into new forms\, including false or exaggerated allegations made to courts\, police and child protective agencies to discredit survivors and create judicial bias. When such litigation abuse is mislabeled as mere “high conflict\,” courts are less likely to impose orders that stop abusive legal tactics.  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThis training will teach participants to recognize litigation abuse\, understand its harms and distinguish it from genuinely high-conflict cases\, and will review practical remedies to prevent the courts from becoming tools of continued domination. The program will also describe the Rockland County Probation Domestic Violence Program for Men\, covering its curriculum\, history and outcomes. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearn More and Register\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDownload the flyer for more information.
