- Learn the difference between the terms “expert witness” and “fact witness.”
- Understand some of the major differences between criminal and civil law proceedings and how they are relevant to counselors and other mental health professionals.
- Learn how to handle subpoenas in civil vs. criminal actions and what to do when served with a search warrant in a criminal case and/or when an investigator shows up, demanding information.
