Being Prepared for the Legal Fight!
This workshop will highlight various aspects of parental rights including, but not limited to, federal laws, state laws, healthcare rights, patient rights, and civil rights. Counsel will emphasize issues regarding the dangers of psychotropic medications and the parents' right to refuse these drugs. These psychotropic drugs are not approved for autism and their use should not precede medical investigation. We will discuss emergency room/hospital admission, knowing your rights, being prepared with medical history and tips to prevent CPS involvement.
Allison Folmar, JD
Attorney Allison Folmar is a civil rights attorney who passionately fought numerous charges brought against her client, Michigan mother Maryanne Godboldo. Maryanne refused to give up her daughter to State authorities when they attempted to force a harmful anti-psychotic drug upon her child who exhibited autistic-like symptoms immediately after vaccinations. The case garnered international attention as Attorney Folmar fought for Maryanne's right to choose the course of medical treatment for her daughter and fiercely challenged the State's medical kidnapping of Ariana. Attorney Folmar won a 10-month legal battle against the Michigan Attorney General and State Prosecutors on the sole premise that a parent has the absolute fundamental liberty interest and constitutional right to have the final voice in choosing the course of medical treatment for his/her child. Folmar's zealous advocacy changed state law in Michigan that makes it now illegal for CPS to intervene when a parent chooses not to administer certain mind-altering drugs to his/her child. Attorney Folmar has assisted in writing Federal legislation to protect parents' rights and has likewise won similar cases across the country.
