What psychological impact can be described, and on what basis?
Symptoms, their course, functioning, reported dynamics, vulnerability and protective factors. The report separates accounts, corroborated information and professional inferences.
Useful records
Available court records, health and psychological reports, a timeline and other relevant materials. Contact arrangements are agreed with regard to safety and privacy.
How we structure the instruction
We first define the question and establish what information is available. We then propose the necessary steps, timing and fees. Where direct assessment is appropriate, we arrange interviews and select methods suited to the person and the question.
The report distinguishes background, sources, findings and conclusions. Court attendance and subsequent clarifications are expressly defined in the proposal.
Explore the stagesScope and limitations
A psychological profile does not automatically establish responsibility or truthfulness. The assessment serves an expert purpose and does not replace emergency or therapeutic care.
Before instruction
How much does an expert psychological assessment cost?
The fee depends on the question, people to assess, volume of records, travel and court testimony. We provide a proposal setting out scope, stages and fees before the instruction.
How long does a report take?
Timing is agreed after reviewing scope and the availability of records and interviews. Tell us about hearings or procedural deadlines at first contact. Urgent work is accepted only after assessing feasibility.
Can the report be explained in court?
Yes. Preparation and attendance to explain the report are agreed in the instruction. In-person or remote attendance depends on the procedure and the court’s authorisation.
