Ep. 49 - Episode 19: Mental Health, Addiction, and the Legal System

What happens when a loved one is struggling with mental health or addiction in Florida and refuses help? What is the difference between a Baker Act, Marchman Act, and guardianship? Join Florida Attorney Mark Astor as he educates us on the multiple ways families can help a relative in need of treatment. We'll discuss the pros and cons of legal intervention and explore the ethical issues that arise, particularly when an individual chooses to cease treatment entirely.
