Best Interest of the Child: Attachment, trauma, and operationalizing the analysis

Tennessee’s best interest factors have fascinating scientific underpinnings. Once the science is understood, the legal analysis is pretty simple.

Best interest is Dawn’s favorite subject, and this talk always receives specific favorable mention in evaluations, even from lawyers who don’t practice in this area. No serious note-taking necessary. Go get lunch or even a glass of wine. Relax and listen.
