    Product Description

    Children and their parents are often separated for numerous reasons, either permanently or on a temporary basis. Whether this is due to issues with health, substance use disorder, issues with housing or numerous other obstacles parents face, knowing the options for your clients and the legal hurdles along the way is of vital importance.

    This panel discusses when it is best for your clients to seek a guardianship, assent to a guardianship, begin the lengthy process for reunification or discuss the adoption process. The panel also covers the pros and cons for each process, the best way to start the process, and litigation strategies to utilize along the way in cases which can often be daunting.
