The Benefits of a Psychiatry Expert Witness

Psychiatrists are medical doctors (M.D. or D.O.) who evaluate and treat mental health disorders. When your case requires testimony or medical analysis in this specialty, it’s crucial to find a Board Certified psychiatry expert witness who is actively practicing in the United States.

Psychiatrists may diagnose a patient’s mental, behavioral or emotional disorder, recommend psychotherapy and prescribe medication, electroconvulsive therapy or other treatments. They base their diagnoses on the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM 5).

Psychiatrists may specialize in addiction, pain, sleep, geriatric, child and adolescent, or forensic psychiatry. They may work in private practice, clinics, hospitals or other health care facilities.

Qualities of an Effective Psychiatry Expert Witness

Multiple factors come together to make a psychiatrist a highly qualified psychiatry expert witness. At AMFS, we analyze experts using than 20 data points to ensure that they deliver the unbiased analysis and testimony your case deserves.

  • Education: AMFS connects you with Board Certified medical expert witnesses who have earned degrees from top universities.
