The Court Proceedings largely concern a series of assessments carried out by
various people. There may be information from drugs agencies, mental health
workers or others, and assessments carried out by a Family Centre or by
specialist expert psychiatrists experienced in these cases. There are specialist
teams in London hospitals and elsewhere providing a mix of psychiatrists,
psychologists, Social Workers and other expertise, in providing help and
assessment for families in these proceedings which are immensely complicated.
