If You Marchman Act Your Loved One, Where Can He Or She Go To Treatment?

You can arrange for your loved one to receive substance use disorder (“SUD”) treatment services at any licensed SUD treatment facility licensed in Florida. If you do not arrange for a certain treatment facility, then the Court will select a treatment facility for you. SUD treatment facilities that have not been pre-arranged may not accept the patient for any one of several reasons, including an inability to pay for treatment or if the facility does not have space available. While proceeding with the Marchman Act, it is best for you to arrange for a specific substance use treatment facility. A Marchman Act attorney with experience working in behavioral healthcare may be able to help you select an appropriate facility in your area.
