Teaching Mental Health Professionals How to File and Win a Restraining Order if their Client Becomes Dangerous

Adam speaks to mental health professionals in Florida about what to do if a client becomes a threat and how to get a restraining order

In February 2019, Adam traveled to Orlando to do a co-presentation on Restraining Orders and Safety for Mental Health Professionals with friend of the firm, Amanda Patterson, a therapist who owns a group practice, Caring Therapists of Broward.

Adam's portion of the presentation focused on giving therapists valuable information on how to file a restraining order against clients who cross the line and become threatening. We discussed the best way to present evidence without violating HIPAA and how to proactively combat common defense to restraining orders.

The presentation was well received and hopefully we'll be giving it again soon!

Reach out if you are a Mental Health Professional in South Florida,  or someone with a mental illness that was charged with a crime in South Florida  

If you are a mental health professional and have any clients with legal issues, reach out to Adam for help with any questions. He can help guide you through the process. Rossen Law Firm began offering Baker Act and Marchman Act services in 2021.

 Call Rossen Law Firm's Offices to arrange a free consultation, or to chat with an attorney about forming a relationship if you are a clinical in the South Florida area.
