Description

Representing Parents in Child Welfare Cases: Advice and Guidance for Family Defenders Vivek Subramanian Sankaran ISBN 9781634252973

Leading experts offer practical guidance at every stage of the legal process, from the initial client interview to court hearings and navigating the Child Abuse and Neglect Registry System. Attorneys representing parents must be prepared to handle the unique challenges and emotional complexities inherent in this area of practice.

Representing parents can often feel isolating. Biases against accused parents may present additional obstacles from judges, opposing counsel, social workers, and service providers—professionals tasked with supporting the reunification process. In many cases, effective legal representation is the only consistent support a parent can rely on within the child welfare system. This book provides actionable, hands-on strategies and insights for attorneys to navigate each stage of the process with skill and confidence.
