We’ve changed the Name from Mental Disorder Law Month.
Mental Health Justice Law is a fresher, brighter outlook on life.
To celebrate this and our February 20, 2021 6th Annual Mental Health Law conference Jointly held between the Criminal Lawyers’ Association (CLA) and the Law and Mental Disorder Association (LAMDA), Lexis Nexis is very kindly offering a special deal on my three text books in this area of law.
Use PROMO code MDL15 at checkout for substantial savings on all three of these books
Register here for the conference. It’s just $45 as a LAMDA or CLA member…., which is basically nothing.
