Children, Courts, and Custody

"Andrew Schepard analyzes the principal challenges facing the child custody court of today: ensuring the safety of parents and children from violence and providing access to justice and services. He examines how the roles of key courtroom players - judges, lawyers for both parents and children, and mental health professionals - must change to promote the best interests of children." "The book concludes with an agenda for reform of the child custody court based on interdisciplinary collaboration that can help courts meet the needs of 21st century parents and children."--BOOK JACKET.
