Addiction Recovery Legal Services, LLC (arlshelp.com)
This private, for-profit, Florida law firm specializes in helping families throughout the U.S. deal with addiction through the Florida Marchman Act. This is a legal intervention process to compel a substance abuser to enter court ordered and monitored Assessment, Stabilization and long-term Treatment for drug or alcohol addiction (at a facility chosen by the family). Through this Act, Addiction Recovery Legal Services can help obtain and enforce confidential, court ordered drug and alcohol intervention, assessment, stabilization, and treatment for any person living with substance abuse and addiction. Although the law is a Florida law, it is applicable to anyone inside the state. Families can bring a person with a substance use problem into Florida from anywhere and once they are in Florida, court ordered treatment can be mandated. Fees are unique to each case. However, in all cases, convenient payment plans are offered and there are sliding scale "financial hardship" packages for people based upon family income as validated through their Tax Returns with the IRS.
