Maitland Parental Kidnapping Attorney
What is Parental Kidnapping?
Parental kidnapping is a common form of abduction. It is defined as the concealment, taking, or retention of a child by his or her parent in violation of the rights of the child’s other parent or another family member.
During divorce and custody proceedings, disputes may arise and escalate into a serious situation involving the authorities. Even though it often involves family members who truly care about the child, parental kidnapping may be considered and prosecuted as a criminal act.
