This is a followup question for this one: How does DataAnnotations really work in MVC? There is an example custom validation, and a \"Self Validate Model\" was mentioned. It
Taking the same answer:
After you implement the Self Validate Model, witch is a Server Side Validation, you need to create the Client Side Validation part, for that, just create this 3 steps:
append to your IClientValidateble class
public IEnumerable<ModelClientValidation> GetClientValidationRules(ModelMetadata metadata, ControllerContext context)
{
    var rule = new ModelCLientValidationRule();
    rule.ErrorMessage = FormatErrorMessage(metadata.GetDisplayName());
    rule.ValidationType = "greater"; // This is what the jQuery.Validation expects
    rule.ValidationParameters.Add("other", OtherPropertyName); // This is the 2nd parameter
    yield return rule;
}
Then you need to write the new jQuery Validator and the metadata adapter that will link the jQuery.Validation with your code providing the correct data- attributes for that field (if of course, UnobtrusiveJavaScriptEnabled is true)
create a new js file and attach to your <head> for example as
<script src="@Url.Content("~/Scripts/customValidation.js")" type="text/javascript"></script>
and append the new validation
jQuery.validator.addMethod("greater", function(value, element, param) {
    // we need to take value and compare with the value in 2nd parameter that is hold in param
    return Date.parse(value) > Date.parse($(param).val());
});
and then we write the adapter
jQuery.validator.unobtrusive.adapters.add("greater", ["other"], function(options) {
    // pass the 'other' property value to the jQuery Validator
    options.rules["greater"] = "#" + options.param.other;
    // when this rule fails, show message that comes from ErrorMessage
    options.messages["greater"] = options.message;
});
You can view this in the AccountModel.cs when you create a new MVC3 Web Applicatoin, it shows this method that implements the IClientValidatable
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Field | AttributeTargets.Property, AllowMultiple = false, Inherited = true)]
public sealed class ValidatePasswordLengthAttribute : ValidationAttribute, IClientValidatable
{
    private const string _defaultErrorMessage = "'{0}' must be at least {1} characters long.";
    private readonly int _minCharacters = Membership.Provider.MinRequiredPasswordLength;
    public ValidatePasswordLengthAttribute()
        : base(_defaultErrorMessage)
    {
    }
    public override string FormatErrorMessage(string name)
    {
        return String.Format(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, ErrorMessageString,
            name, _minCharacters);
    }
    public override bool IsValid(object value)
    {
        string valueAsString = value as string;
        return (valueAsString != null && valueAsString.Length >= _minCharacters);
    }
    public IEnumerable<ModelClientValidationRule> GetClientValidationRules(ModelMetadata metadata, ControllerContext context)
    {
        return new[]{
            new ModelClientValidationStringLengthRule(FormatErrorMessage(metadata.GetDisplayName()), _minCharacters, int.MaxValue)
        };
    }
}
