What is the role of a forensic psychologist in a legal case? How do I build a forensic psychological practice? How do I prepare for testimony? How are forensic reports different from clinical reports? How do I assess for malingering and other response styles? How do I incorporate data that does not fit with my forensic opinion in the report (i.e., alternative hypotheses)? How do I ethically utilize AI? How do I balance being a partner, and parent, and running a forensic or law practice? Should I take on associates, trainees, interns, or fellows?

The most important question of all is, how do I take care of myself in a career where there is such a high volume of secondary trauma?
