This casebook, the leading text in the field, covers all significant and emerging legal issues pertaining to people with mental health disorders and mental healthcare professionals. After discussing the nature of mental health disorders, mental health treatments, and various other preliminary issues in chapter 1, Part I focuses on the mental healthcare professions, including administrative regulation, malpractice liability, informed consent, and confidentiality and privacy issues. Part II delves into mental health-related deprivations of liberty, germane evidentiary matters, mental health disorders and criminal law, civil commitment, civil and criminal competency issues, and post-commitment rights. Part III, on entitlements and discrimination, explores the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, Social Security laws, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and federal housing law.
