In order to fight back against the abuse claims, Brad Pitt really needs to have patience. HollywoodLife.com spoke EXCLUSIVELY to a legal expert who provided sound advice for the actor… just in case these allegations are taken to court.
Both Brad Pitt, 52, and Angelina Jolie, 41, have a long road ahead of them as their divorce continues to unfold amidst the accusations of child abuse. As Brad continues to fight the allegations, HollywoodLife.com spoke EXCLUSIVELY to Patrick Clancy, a trial defense lawyer and the founder of The Innocence Legal Team, to find out what the actor’s next steps could be.
“I would tell him to keep his mouth shut and wait to see the evidence. I would say lets wait and see what they have. I would want to see physical examinations and personally I would advise him not to make any statements,” Patrick, who does not represent Brad legally, told HollywoodLife.com. “In custody cases decades ago people would fight over who was bonded more, I fed the child, I changed the diaper, I drove them to school and back.”
Patrick also shared that, unfortunately, family law courts are all “abuse” cases these days. “It’s in almost every custody case and I believe that a lot of it is caused by family law lawyers seeking to gain an advantage,” Patrick explained. “False allegations are so rampant these days they’ve come out with an encyclopedia on the entire thing. There are heightened occurrences during divorce proceedings, this is a major problem in the family law courts. Out of all the cases that go to child protective services 60% are dropped because they have no substantial proof.”
