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.
