“Doc-Talk: Discoveries in forensic psychology” is an educational email series that provides brief tutorials to attorneys, paralegals and legal support staff. The goal is to connect you to interesting scientific discoveries pertinent to criminal cases you encounter and includes directions to resources for more in-depth exploration.  

No, we are not selling anything and your email is not being given to a global corporation. This simply is a project Dr. Simpson has been wanting to do for some time now.  Over the past 30 years he has taught professionals in hundreds of trainings, including for the State Bar of Arizona and the JAG school at Maxwell. He truly enjoys teaching forensic topics for the legal community, and “Doc-Talk” is an extension of that passion.
