520 _a Providing abundant samples of legal questioning, EFFECTIVE MEDICAL TESTIFYING is the first handbook written for health care providers that focuses entirely on the strategies and verbal tactics employed by trial attorneys. Designed to familiarize physicians with legal proceedings and questions commonly heard in the courtroom and during depositions, this practical handbook presents the typical challenges faced in various cases, including personal injury, workers' compensation, and medical malpractice. To fully prepare the reader for the responsibilities of being a physician witness, comparisons between ineffective responses and well-thought-out replies to realistic questions are included throughout the book.
