Drawing on his extensive experience treating veterans with PTSD and conducting over hundreds of forensic evaluations, Dr. Armontrout offers attorneys an in-depth look at how trauma unfolds, how PTSD is diagnosed, and what distinguishes reliable psychiatric assessments in litigation.
Key topics discussed include:
- What separates acute trauma from chronic PTSD in legal claims
- How forensic psychiatrists distinguish genuine symptoms from exaggeration
- What modern PTSD treatment really looks like—and why it's relevant to litigation
- The roles of psychological testing and interview structure in reliable assessments
