1.) contact client, keep them in the loop. Client can also decline ( assert privilege). Our best interest is for the client. 2.) Coming from judge/court, contact client if it’s an option however if SW contacted client then advocate for client by limited release or confidentiality. Based on scenario in video for first/next.
Hey Ray! I wanted to thank you for your helpful tips and video series for taking the LSW exam. I watched a lot of your videos before the exam and they helped more than the books I was using. I wanted to let you know that I passed my exam after the second time and I'm official!!! I tell everyone about your videos and how they helped. Thanks buddy. I really appreciate you!
Hey Ray! I just wanted to say THANK YOU!!! Your clarity, wisdom and guidance played a pivotal role in me passing my LCSW exam yesterday. I passed on my first try!
Hi Ray! I took my LSW exam today and passed! Thank you so much for doing these videos; this video in particular broke down spectacularly how to deal with this situation and was so helpful! Keep doing what you do!
What about consult legal advice? Someone said when you get a subpoena if the answer has this choose first?!?! I’m confused because all study material I’ve studied says client, claim privilege, consult supervisor, legal….
I am loving your videos! You have a nack for breaking things down. One thing though regarding subpoenas For the exam, this is not a situation where you will notify the client first. You must comply. It's still a great thing to keep them in the loop, but the court comes first.
Your videos were so helpful and easy to understand/follow. Thank you because you definitely helped me pass my Clinical Exam last week!!! Keep doing what you do!!
I had a practice e question where the correct answer was “consult with your supervisor”, where would this fit in the cereal analogy? It seemed to me that this practice answer was saying I needed to talk to my supervisor before doing anything else. Thanks!
Hey Ray, I have watched you for the past week. Thanks for all the tips and info! I test tomorrow, shew lordy- fingers crossed. I am nervous but I am hoping you pop in and out of my mind during to help me remember the things I struggle with. You're videos are much appreciated!
Hey Ray! Thanks again for all the help with these videos. I am sorry for the plethora of comments. I am studying away for my LMSW test. I took a practice test on the ASWB website. I don't want to break any rules or get in trouble. Paraphrasing, I selected the answer choice to reach out to the client first, but the ASWB marked my answer as incorrect and said I should have reached out to legal counsel FIRST. Any way you could help me with this question? I feel like in general ive been given different feedback if I should go to the client or legal counsel first, and I don't want to get it wrong on the test. Thank you! Once again, I hope I did not break any rules.
I had a question on a practice exam that said that the first action was to talk to the agency's legal counsel before reaching out to the client to see if we can release the records. Why?
Hey, Katherine. Yes, that would be correct because it’s still speaking with legal counsel, they just happen to have one at their agency which is useful.
Hi Ray! I have a question about this topic. If we receive a supoena from a judge or a court order, can we request that they withdraw the order if it would be harmful to the client? Is that an option? I know that we can request them to limit the records we send, but can we actually request that they withdraw the order entirely? Thanks!
Hey, Alyssa. The only time the social worker would contact their own lawyer is if the subpoena was for the actual social worker to appear in court. If that were the case, the social worker would want to seek legal counsel for themselves.

Thanks for checking out my channel! Milk before the cereal? Oh man lol
I do spoon, milk, bowl, cereal. Always a mess.
Hey ray what happens if the exam offers 1) seek legal consultation, 2) contact the client. What do you do in that situation????
Your the best teacher I’ve encountered.

When would you seek legal counsel in your scenario?

I'm a little confused because some rationales say we are supposed to contact our own lawyers first then contact the client.
Hey, Alyssa. The only time the social worker would contact their own lawyer is if the subpoena was for the actual social worker to appear in court. If that were the case, the social worker would want to seek legal counsel for themselves.
I just took a aswb practice exam and it said seek supervision before contacting the client.
This scares me
i'm sorry but this is wrong when your court ordered u are not suppose to contact client first apply to the request firsts
Yeah you aren’t. Only if lawyer orders

@@raytubelcsw I used your psychotropic trick and omg it is great thank you!
@@EsaCrisbel Nice! I'm glad it helped! Make sure to let other social workers know so they don't stress about it. I know it can be a lot.
