Many young clients have experienced trauma, particularly those involved in the child welfare or juvenile justice systems. Trauma can affect the most fundamental aspects of the attorney-client relationship. A working understanding of trauma, including its origins and impacts, can help lawyers anticipate and respond to trauma's effects as they surface. This webinar focuses on practical strategies for communicating with young clients who have experienced trauma.
