Book Description

Written by an author team educated in both the law and social work, this book acquaints readers with major state and federal laws, regulations, and court opinions that directly affect social work practice. LAW IN SOCIAL WORK PRACTICE teaches readers to understand how to work within the legal system to benefit clients and further client interests, recognize certain client problems as legal, work effectively with lawyers, and learn how the law shapes and restricts clients' actions. It also addresses how the law regulates social work practice, and how to recognize and respect the rights of clients and others affected by a practitioner's actions.

5.0 out of 5 stars VERY IMPORTANT BOOK, January 4, 2002
This review is from: Law in Social Work Practice (The Nelson-Hall Series in Social Welfare) (Paperback)
As an attorney who works with social workers on a routine basis, it is clear that professional social workers, students and others who care about the essential link between law and social work will derive substantial benefit from this solid, basic resource. LAW IN SOCIAL WORK PRACTICE reveals the connection between law and social work as perhaps no other has before. The authors' strong professional credentials and ability to write insightfully and succinctly provide the reader with a multitude of valuable information and practical tips toward pursuing social work practice with added effectiveness and efficiency.
