Assignment 3: Civil Litigation and Personal Injury Assessment<\/p>\n
A forensic assessment may serve a number of purposes in both criminal and civil contexts. In the context of civil litigation, a forensic mental health professional may be called to provide an assessment in a personal injury \u00a0case. For example, the professional may be asked to identify whether a \u00a0traumatic disability or syndrome exists and, if so, to determine the \u00a0severity and impact on an individual’s functional abilities. Personal injury litigation expands over several areas.<\/p>\n
Using resources from the professional literature, research two types of reports written for civil litigation \u00a0purposes. The literature may include the Argosy University online \u00a0library resources, relevant textbooks, peer-reviewed journal articles, \u00a0and scholarly websites created by professional organizations, agencies, \u00a0or institutions.<\/p>\n
