Assessments and Reports
| In order to
strengthen the case they are making for their clients, lawyers will
often instruct us to prepare a report. Generally this involves our
mental health expert seeing the client for a clinical assessment and
then writing an impartial report. On some occasions reports have
been prepared to give a professional opinion based on documents
available to the Court. As a guide, here are some areas where our
reports could prove helpful to your case. The list is not exhaustive so
please contact us to discuss your needs. |
