Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Children who experience parental divorce or trauma, particularly when these are accompanied by conflict, face increased risks to their health and adjustment. While many children adjust well, a sizeable number will experience long periods in which parents are in conflict or the family is involved with the courts. These children's needs may differ from other children and quality early intervention is critical. With chapters by an acclaimed international group of authors, this book provides the go to reference for understanding and providing appropriate services for these children and families, informed by the best available research and professional literature.
MoreLong description:
Evidence-Informed Interventions for Court-Involved Families provides a critical, research-informed analysis of the core factors to consider when developing child-centered approaches to therapy and other family interventions, both in formal treatment settings and in promoting healthy engagement with the other systems and activities critical to children's daily lives.
Addressing common problems, obstacles, and the backdrop of support needed from other professionals or the court, an international team of experts provide chapters covering a variety of service models and drawing on a wealth of relevant research on the legal context, central issues for treatment and other services, and specialized issues such as trauma, family violence, parent-child contact problems, and children with special needs. Offering extensive practical guidance for applying research, understanding its limitations, and matching service plans to families' needs, this book will be an essential resource for all mental health professionals evaluating or providing services to these families, and to the lawyers and judges seeking a better understanding of what works.
Family psychodynamics and interventions have ever been the square peg striving to fit in the round hole of the legal system. This book will be a boon to the family law judge who, required to do the right thing, is bound by the rules of evidence and the rule of law. These are often not amenable to ascertaining and fixing relationship problems that lie at the hearts of children and families of divorce. The authors employ evidentiary nexes to narrow the gap between our disciplines and provide specific tools to benefit families of divorce, equip family law professionals, and enlighten the finder of fact, that is, the family law judicial officer.
