Our personal injury and independent medical evaluations typically involve:

• A detailed clinical interview with your client and collateral sources to determine their pre and post-injury functioning. These interviews will help us understand important psychological, medical, and social background information, and their current cognitive and psychological functioning.
• Consultation with the attorney or insurance company to determine the medical-legal questions that need to be answered.
• A review of medical, psychological, and other collateral documents that help us have a better understanding of your client’s psychological and emotional functioning pre and post-injury.
• We will administer neuropsychological and psychological tests to objectively assess for mental health diagnoses or cognitive impairment.
• We will administer and interpret paper and computer-based tests to assess for:
  • General intellectual abilities
  • Higher level executive skills such as reasoning and problem solving
  • Attention and concentration
  • Language comprehension and communication
  • Visual-spatial skills and perception
  • Memory impairment
  • Motor and sensory skills
  • Mood and personality
  • Psychological diagnoses
• After we complete the evaluation, we will write a comprehensive report that integrates our findings, reviews the course of the injury, discusses your client’s prognosis, and provide treatment recommendations.
