Description
Criminal Law for Family Law Attorneys Patricia D Shewmaker ISBN 9781639053384
Family law and criminal law often intersect. In some cases, such as domestic violence, the criminal implications are clear—but in others, like unlawful tracking or surveillance, they can be less obvious. Family law attorneys who overlook these overlaps may unintentionally make matters worse by being unable to advise clients properly.
Criminal Law for Family Law Attorneys is designed to help family law practitioners protect their clients from criminal liability. While it does not turn you into a criminal defense expert, it equips you to identify potential criminal issues and either advise clients appropriately or refer them to a qualified criminal defense attorney. Often, the most valuable service we can provide clients is spotting and addressing problems before they arise.
