What procedures would you use if an attorney asked you to determine if a litigant suffered emotional injury or trauma due to the fault of another person? How would you determine if the claim was exaggerated or fabricated? How do you follow the rules of evidence while maintaining your professional ethics and boundaries? How do you remain fair and neutral when you render an expert opinion that favors one side over the other? In this intermediate workshop, the presenter answers these questions and discusses general procedures, billing and fees, the competing professional ethics of psychologists and attorneys, preparation for cross-examination, and tips for a rewarding courtroom experience.
