Legal Problem? Alcohol or Drug Problem?

Alcohol or Drug Related Legal Problem?

If you currently have a legal problem related to drugs or alcohol RedChair may be able to help. Drink drive, drug drive, public order offences, drunk and disorderly, drunken violence, drug possession?

The legal system often deals with the effects of addiction, without identifying the underlying cause. In turn, repeat offending or consequences can result in punitive action where treatment would have been more appropriate. Other symptoms of an underlying addiction can be, domestic violence, drink-driving, employment issues, debt, fraud and theft.

A person might be addicted to: alcohol, illegal and prescribed drugs, gambling, sex, spending (the list goes on). Your clients may benefit from genuine efforts to identify and deal with the underlying problem. Often a legal problem is the first real opportunity for them to admit there is a problem. With skilled assessment and treatment it is a good opportunity for your client, and those who have to pass sentence, when an individual is proactive in facing up to their problems.

Client Assessments

Assessment and Report 

RedChair specialist staff can be contracted to assess a client for the underlying addiction and mental health status. This information will often support a client taking treatment, thus supporting the courts in providing more appropriate sentencing. Reducing the risk of an ongoing problem is a legal, social and humane method for those with addiction issues and mental health issues. We will attend court on the day and often support the client whilst undergoing pre-sentencing reports

Training For Legal Professionals

RedChair provide a training session aimed at assisting professionals in preliminary identification of symptoms that indicate underlying issues. Give your staff the edge when it comes to identification of an underlying addiction. This can help them represent the clients best interests and thereby support increasingly better outcomes.
