introduction
QUESTIONNAIRE
I tried a case for a juvenile client being tried on an assault charge. In working with this client I noticed his behavior was different at times and certainly inconsistent. I had him evaluated by a mental health professional and it was discovered he indeed had behavioral issues which caused his violent behavior. The parents were indigent and unable to provide any type of mental health services for their son. I was able to help him legally but with making his life better after receiving the mental health support he needed.
