Full Description
Psychologists have served as expert witnesses for over a century, but only recently have they cultivated a consistent role as trial consultants, evolving from mere providers of courtroom testimony into active participants in the shaping of each phase of criminal and civil proceedings. The Psychologist as Trial Consultant serves as the psychologist's primary resource for expanding into this rapidly developing and lucrative specialty area. Organizing material into the areas of psychological science, psychological practice, and mental health roles, author Eric Drogin provides a ready context for all trial consultation. This volume presents psychologists, both those new to forensic work and those experienced as expert witnesses, with practical advice on how to develop, promote, and manage a consulting practice.
