This blog helps you understand something about the world of forensic psychiatry. This area of medicine combines knowledge of the legal system with psychiatric training. Examples include evaluating child custody disputes, assessing allegations of sexual abuse, evaluating children and adults charged with crimes, serving as an expert witness in civil suits, evaluating medical malpractice cases - to name a few.
While I cannot help you with advice concerning a particular case unless I am retained, we can discuss many topics here, and even generate some controversy. Welcome!
