Inhaltsangabe

Professionals from social work, psychology, nursing, medicine and related disciplines are increasingly being confronted by issues of law in their interaction with abused and neglected children. Serving to familiarize these practitioners with the innumerable legal implications of their day-to-day work, this volume delineates American legal aspects of interviewing children who may be abused or neglected.

The author discusses expert testimony, focusing on the question of who is qualified to provide such testimony, what professionals may and may not say as expert witnesses, and explores how to cope with cross-examination in court cases.
