German term

Bedenken

German to English Law/Patents Law (general) Court document re: custody decision
Am I understanding this sentence correctly? Did the specialist A successfully defend objections from specialist B to assessments she had made? Or is this sentence saying something else?

(Vor dem Satz steht:)
Zwar ist das Gutachten der Sachverstaendigen A von der die Kindesmutter betreuenden Dipl.-Psychologin B dezidiert angegriffen worden. Diese Angriffe sind aber nicht geignet, die wesentlichen Kernaussagen des Gutachtens in Zweifel zu ziehen.

(Dann kommt dieser Satz:)
Die Sachverstaendige A hat sich eingehend mit den in ihrer Begutachtung geaeusserten Bedenken auseinandergesetzt und in ueberzeugender und nachvollziehbarer Weise dargelegt, dass ihre gutachtliche Einschaetzung zutreffend ist.

Ich hab's so uebersetzt:
The specialist A has closely examined the objections to her assessmentsand demonstrated in a convincing and comprehensible manner, that her advisory opinion is accurate.

sorry! i'm not exactly into the points yet. the more i'm here, the more i will learn about these considerations. i didn't know it mattered. sorry about that. i could have chosen either one. i felt that "stated in the opinion" could be interpreted either way rather than "her", that's why.

Just out of curiosity: Why did you award the points to an answer submitted after mine and just repeating what I said?

I would go with "concerns" or "issues"

bedenken is sth that you worry about, so i think concern or issue (sth you have problems with) would be a good fit.

Peer comment(s):

disagree silvia glatzhofer : She "doubts" what? No, she doesn't doubt, she had concerns, but after in-depth examiniation she came to the conclusion that her opinion was correct
