Attorneys as caregivers during divorce.

Abstract

In a survey of the emotional and practical problems presented by divorce clients, 74 attorneys reported spending one-fifth of their time in such cases dealing with clients' extralegal problems. While most attorneys reported feeling generally effective in this caregiving role, an overwhelming majority would welcome mental health consultation. Types of extralegal problems and of attorney responses are analyzed, and implications for further collaboration in both practice and research are discussed.
