Rosen Divorce Collaborates with Mental Health Professionals

Raleigh, NC-Rosen Divorce, the state’s largest divorce firm and rising multidisciplinary practice, recently began collaborating with mental health professionals who assist clients in divorce related situations.

Earlier this week in both Raleigh and Charlotte locations, Rosen Divorce held Clinicians in Court, a half-day seminar where more than 50 statewide mental health professionals attended. Among the guest speakers was Jonathan Gould, a practicing forensic and clinical psychologist who has done extensive writing in the area of child custody evaluations.

“We also now have a section of our website especially dedicated to mental health professionals,” said Lee Rosen, attorney and president of Rosen Divorce. “We felt that teaming up with these professionals will better strengthen the role both attorneys and therapist play in family law.” Along with their external collaboration, Rosen Divorce recently hired a mental health professional to work alongside staff attorneys in assisting clients through the divorce process.

Rosen Divorce’s on-line section for mental health professionals features FAQ’s about matters such as receiving a subpoena and testifying in a trial; sample cases relating to mental health professionals; and relevant statutes that concern mental health professionals in the court system. “This is just the beginning of our comprehensive on-line section for mention health professionals,” said Lisa Angel, Rosen Divorce attorney. “Mental health professionals need a resource to go to when faced with situations involving the courts and we want to provide them with the guidance and information they need.”
