Event Outline

Not every mental condition changes the legal outcome and some may do so in surprising ways. This module equips lawyers to better identify psychiatric and psychological conditions in clients and understand their legal implications. Learn how to work with forensic psychiatrists, interpret reports, and support vulnerable witnesses. We’ll also explore the growing role of social workers and intermediaries in enhancing justice outcomes.
