Martin Law Firm is the business name of Brett W. Martin, P.C., a Colorado Professional Corporation specializing in representing fathers in the areas of divorce, custody law, child support, domestic relations, father's rights, paternity, family, juvenile and criminal law within the Denver-Boulder metro area and the Colorado Front Range.  The Firm's offices are located at 11005 Dover Street, Suite 100 - 200, Westminster, Colorado.

Martin, Esq., actively advances the interests and concerns of fathers in Colorado domestic and family law litigation.  This is a small firm, and personal attention is given to fathers to help them through what for many is a very difficult, if not the worst, time in their lives.

Views expressed in this site are mainly from a father's perspective.  The perspective is that of the firm's founder and reflects the views of a father having been through divorce as well of those of an attorney litigating custody law matters on a regular basis.  None of the views and comments expressed should be taken as legal advise and the reader is cautioned that every case is different, and that the facts and circumstances of each case often control the outcome.  The firm's Father's Rights lawyers should be consulted about your particular case.

This site contains information about Martin Law Firm, its practice, the attorneys or lawyers, billing and payment procedures, and family and custody law resources for fathers.  The link for "Attorney Profiles" under "About the Firm" leads to background information on Brett W. Martin, Esq., the managing attorney and Father's Rights lawyer, and about the Firm's associate Father's and Men's Rights attorneys.

The links under "Family Law" provide information regarding the issues frequently encountered by fathers in divorce and custody law cases, give a general outline of the process and include "hot links" to resources available to the public.  Links found under "Father's Rights" include "hot links" to other sites having information for fathers in custody law disputes and the sites of a number of active Father's Rights groups throughout the United States.  The links are provided as a courtesy only and do not constitute an endorsement of the content found on the sites listed.  If your organization would like to be included in the fathers group listing, please email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Parental Alienation Print E-mail

What is Parental Alienation?

Parental Alienation (PA) or Hostile-Aggressive Parenting (HAP) is emotional child abuse that leads to Parental Alienation Syndrome (PAS), a psychological condition of the child.  It is a tactic used by one parent to undermine or destroy the child’s love, attachment and relationship with the other parent.  It is seen frequently in custody disputes and has long-lasting effects.  Research indicates that children with PAS have problems with their own relationships as adults and, when they become parents themselves, they repeat the alienating behavior learned as a child with their own children.  It becomes a cycle of psychological child abuse.  More information on the definition, symptoms and examples of Parental Alienation or Hostile-Aggressive Parenting may be found at this link: Parental Alienation Awareness Organization. A recent article about Parental Alienation published in the Denver Post may be downloaded at this link. Syndicated News talk shows about Parental Alienation and what to do about it are at these links: Blog Talk Radio 1-11-12 and 1-25-12.
