Psychological difficulties can often arise from any traumatic event. Frequently people in road traffic accidents or accidents at work can be left with psychological injuries alongside physical injuries. Adjustment back to normal life can also be difficult after an accident.
I have been completing psychological assessments and legal reports for a number of years. I hold the Cardiff University Law School Bond Solon (CUBS) Expert Witness certificate, which demonstrates the requisite competencies to act as an expert witness. I am able to offer comprehensive, evidence-based reports within a swift timescale upon receipt of instruction. Clients are usually seen at the Nottingham or Derby locations.
Assessment for medico-legal reports would usually involve a clinical interview along with information from other sources pertaining to any psychological difficulties experienced by the individual. The use of specialist psychometric testing will also provide an assessment of the impact of a traumatic event.
