Obtaining sensitive information from clients for representation in victim-based immigration claims requires practitioners to understand how trauma affects the brain. Understanding trauma-informed care is critical to a practitioner’s ability to effectively perform legal interviews. This webinar will teach practitioners the skills necessary to effectively represent clients who are survivors of crime. Presenters will share best practices to make initial screenings and subsequent interviews both effective and empathetic in order to build strong rapport with clients and gather facts that comply with legal requirements.
