We provide independent case evaluations and clinical consulting services for attorneys, agencies, and individuals seeking a professional mental health perspective on a legal, administrative, or personal matter.
Unlike a full forensic evaluation, a case evaluation is a focused review of available records, allegations, clinical information, and relevant circumstances to identify strengths, weaknesses, risks, mitigating factors, and potential areas for further investigation. These consultations can assist attorneys with case strategy, help individuals understand the psychological issues involved in their case, and identify whether a more comprehensive forensic evaluation may be warranted.
Case evaluations may be helpful in matters involving:
Child custody and parenting disputes
Criminal mitigation and sentencing
Domestic violence allegations
Stalking and harassment cases
Juvenile delinquency matters
Psychosexual concerns
Mental health disability claims
Immigration hardship cases
Adoption and guardianship matters
Professional licensing concerns
School, workplace, or organizational disputes
Services may include record review, consultation meetings, written summaries, recommendations for additional assessment, identification of psychological issues, and preparation for mediation, litigation, or administrative proceedings.
GFC's case evaluations are conducted by experienced forensic mental health professionals and are designed to provide practical, objective, and clinically informed feedback tailored to the needs of each case.
