Re: Psychiatric Evaluation for Fitness of Gun Ownership Psychiatrist Recommendation
I've had trouble finding attorneys who specialize in this type of work. It seems like there are only a handful in the Pittsburgh area. I don't know who has a good track record and my attorneys that I use for real estate transfers and when I had a client that didn't want to pay their $10,000 bill doesn't handle these kinds of cases. I could use a good recommendation.
As to using a specific psychiatrist, WHY NOT JUST ANY, is because there are very few who will do a fitness for gun ownership evaluation. It's a specialty that most psychiatrists and psychologists do not do. Fortunately, I've received an excellent recommendation for someone very experienced in this field and am going to consult them.

You don't owe anyone any more info about your personal life than you care to volunteer.
You came here to ask a legitimate question and got the typical "this guy seems shady" response.

Re: Psychiatric Evaluation for Fitness of Gun Ownership Psychiatrist Recommendation
I would start with your current psych. I can imagine many even pro gun ones will be hesitant to do this for a stranger who has a 302 on their record. ....

There are lots of 302s. Do some digging on the forum, one member posted in detail his struggles to get his rights back.
He did, eventually."Cives Arma Ferant"

Re: Psychiatric Evaluation for Fitness of Gun Ownership Psychiatrist Recommendation
I think you're thinking of me and the hell I went through with mine. Here is who I used for my Psych eval - http://www.centrepsychology.com/
He was really good it was a 2-3 hr appointment and cost around $250 if memory serves me correct. Probably a bit of a drive (3hr's or so) for the OP I'd guess. You'll have an initial interview then you take a long test consisting of 250+ questions then you have a post interview to go over the test and he'll ask more questions. From there it'll take him a couple of days to finish the report and send you and your lawyer copies.
As for a lawyer I'd recommend Joshua Prince, that's who I worked with and he was amazing and stuck through all the bs with me. The only downside I can see for the OP is he's on the opposite end of the state, if you have a court trial he's going to need to travel so be prepared to pay for that although he was very reasonable with his travel time with me (Not quite as far though).

Ask Sigforlife or Gunlawyer if they have a recommendation for a lawyer near you and then go from there.
