The Dependency Quick Guide is intended to be used as a reference manual for attorneys representing parents and children in juvenile dependency proceedings. Its goal is to provide guidance and short answers to common problems that attorneys face. The book is divided into three major parts: "Hearings," "Fact Sheets," and "Summaries of Seminal Cases."
Here's what's new in the third edition: Continuum of Care Reform, new ICWA regulations, updated seminal cases, and new fact sheets.

The hearings section is organized by statutory hearing in procedural order. Each statutory hearing section contains checklists and black letter discussion and tips. The checklists outline the primary tasks that must be completed and factors that must be considered before, during, and after each statutory dependency hearing.
