I just wanted to reinforce again that I AM NOT A PSYCHOLOGIST.

The person who is a psychologist is "Diablo"

I still think the advice may be damaging. He or she (the doctors) will have a bunch of witnesses that say their hands weren't shaking. And wouldn't it be best for the lawyer to hear what they are saying and then respond to that? Also, I think warning them about a lawyer would take away the element of surprise, which is a formidable strategy in any battle, not just legal. They can start preparing and alter records.

I don't think the dr's would even have the legal right to give her back her child. If it went to children's services, or whatever the equivalent is in CA, then it's their case now, so threatening the dr's would probably not even help, but just make things worse and the dr's more adversarial and defensive now, because she accused them of being on drugs/alcohol. They will now have a personal anger against her.

That is prudent and I am positive that is exactly what she will do.
I stated, quite honestly, what I would do in her situation *period*

It was not "legal advice".
It was LindaLand advice.

I know. I didn't know you were a lawyer until later. I thought it was just LL advice, which is why I freaked out, because I didn't know you were a lawyer and the advice sounded....dangerous to me.
