TY - JOUR T1 - Expert witness billing practices revisited: a pilot study of further data JF - Journal of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law Online JO - J Am Acad Psychiatry Law SP - 202 LP - 206 VL - 29 IS - 2 AU - TG Gutheil AU - ML Commons AU - PM Miller Y1 - 2001/06/01 UR - http://jaapl.org/content/29/2/202.abstract N2 - This pilot study follows up an earlier study of the strategies and rationales by which psychiatric expert witnesses bill for their time on a case. Questionnaires were answered by participants at a workshop at the Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Psychiatry and Law (AAPL). In this follow-up, additional novel billing issues were addressed, some subtler than in the original study. In addition, responses to one question supported the previous finding that experts billed more reasonably when a case was simple. Additional issues included use of fee agreements and returning an unpaid-for case. The implications of these findings are discussed. ER -
