Legal and ethical dilemmas and issues for Disability Liaison Officers in tertiary institutions.

This paper, presented at Pathways 4 conference, considers ethical and legal issues associated with individual professional practice including negligence, negligent misstatement and client confidentiality. It addresses contextual professional concerns such as intra- and inter-role conflict (for example advocate versus mediator, or DLO role versus other University roles), and the difficulty of working in complex environments with competing agendas.
