A selection of representative cases illustrates legal aspects involved in providing services to families, children, elders, and persons with disabilities. Also included are chapters on advocacy in social work, both in its potential to influence policy and on the global stage as part of the ongoing struggle for human rights and dignity.Among the topics covered:Confidentiality and the social worker-client relationshipLiability issues for social workers in the clinical contextLegal issues arising in the context of social work researchThe social worker and forensic social workSocial worker involvement in access to school and school servicesSocial work in the context of health careLegal issues working with immigrants, refugees, and asyleesThe interface between social work and human rightsLegal Issues in Social Work Practice and Research is an interdisciplinary text aimed at social work, mental health, and legal professionals.
