I have not posted anything for quite some time. There has been a very good reason for that. I have been busy researching and writing my new book - The Special Needs Child and Divorce. The book is published by the American Bar Association, one of the leading legal publishers in the world.
The book just launched on April 24, 2009, and I am on a whirlwind of speaking engagements. There is so much need for the information contained in the book. I am thrilled to be able to get the information into the hands of families who have special needs children and are going through divorce. I am also traveling across the United States educating lawyers and judges about this important material. This book explains what special needs are, how they affect special needs children when their families are going through divorce, and how the courts and lawyers need to handle these cases in a different way to meet the unique needs of special needs children and their families. A CD is included with the book, that contains many printable forms, samples, pleadings, checklists and other helpful materials for use when families with special needs children are going through divorce. The CD also contains an extensive printable glossary that can be taken along to court or to depositions for handy reference.
As this book is becoming known throughout the legal community and the special needs community, I am being called upon to serve as an expert witness and/or as a consultant on divorce cases all over the United States. I help lawyers and families by evaluating the medical records, therapy notes, IEPs, 504 Plans, and I write reports or testify with recommendations as to the best plan for the special needs child in the divorce process.
