The postdivorce clinic. Sheffner, D. J. & Suarez, J. M. American Journal of Psychiatry, 132(4):442–4, USA, 1975.
abstract   bibtex   
The authors describe a clinic that evaluates court-referred families who have child custody or visitation problems in the postdivorce period. A multidisciplinary staff uses interviews, auxiliary sources of information, and psychological testing to arrive at recommendations that often address issues not specifically mentioned in the legal proceedings, particularly regarding treatment for disturbed children. The authors suggest that the clinic is an example of an appropriate interaction between law and psychiatry.
