dc.description.abstractThe growth of the profession of forensic interviewing in the past fifty years, the development of standards governing this work, and the significant research influencing this work are all factors courts must consider when prosecutors seek to utilize a forensic interviewer as an expert witness or when defense attorneys call experts completely outside of this field to critique the work of an interviewer or the credibility of a child’s statements. This Article explores this issue and offers forensic interviewers— and the attorneys who call them to the witness stand—concrete suggestions for offering expert testimony and in otherwise defending these interviews in court.18 The Article also offers guidelines for challenging the testimony of those called as experts to critique a forensic interview.en_US
