What we do

There are many terms for the reports we write. Psychological assessment reports, medico-legal reports, psychiatric assessment reports, personal injury reports, and litigation reports are often used interchangeably.

These reports document the extent of psychological injury suffered due to an event or ongoing situation.

Psychological Assessment
detailed professional opinion

Who are they for?

Psychological trauma can occur following an accident, or ongoing situation at the workplace, for example. This trauma is often contested in civil litigation claims.

We write reports for individuals in these cases, most often in personal injury claims.

We do not provide assessments in criminal or custodial cases. Neither do we provide diagnostic assessment or educational assessment.
