Dr.
Franklin's
work shines…. She presents as a neutral and thoughtful professional who
would win over a jury or impress a judge with her low-key but thorough
approach…. Patiently translated her profession's jargon into concepts I
could understand, helping me to deal with a difficult client and
situation….
Dr. Franklin is an asset to her profession.
Dr.
Franklin
is competent, credible, ethical and courageous…. Her credentials as an
expert witness are impressive. Her skill on the witness stand is even
more
impressive. Her testimony is always clear, concise, understandable and
credible. She has the courage to dispute or challenge positions taken
by
her peers ... coupled with an ability to communicate with her patients
that fostered ongoing therapeutic relationships…. I wish she were
available
to perform second-opinion evaluations for my clients!
Strong
clinical
judgment … excellent ability to conceptualize and integrate information
… a superb writer … sensitive to diverse cultural and socioeconomic
backgrounds….
I recommend her without hesitation.
Karen
Franklin
worked for over two years on a high-profile capital case in which the
defendant
was described as "the poster boy for the death penalty." Dr. Franklin
was
instrumental in uncovering, analyzing, and integrating deeply buried
evidence
that became the cornerstone of the penalty phase defense. Ultimately,
after
the jury heard "the other side of the story," it voted to spare the
defendant's
life. The client and I will be forever grateful to Dr. Franklin for the
skill, judgment, and professionalism that she brought to the case.
