Synopsis

Preparing and presenting cases to court is often a key part of the social workers role, but can be a daunting prospect, especially for new practitioners. Knowing how best to prepare, how to work with lawyers, how to behave in court and how to help the court make the right decision for the child will have far-reaching consequences. So what can social workers do to increase their confidence in this environment and ensure that their day in court has a positive outcome?

This book looks at some steps that workers can take to get the most out of going to court before, during and after the actual hearing. It explores the terminology including court structure and who s who; the paperwork required; how to prepare for court; understanding the role of the lawyer; working with Children s Guardians; what to do and not to do during the hearing; and actions to take afterwards. The guide focuses on the court processes of England and Wales, although basic court skills will also be common to Northern Ireland.

All practitioners who have to go to court or have legal departments will find this book invaluable for quick reference and considered, practical advice, as well as prompt for further thought and exploration.
