Personal Injury

Impaired Cognitive Functioning

     After a head injury (also called Traumatic Brain Injury), people often experience difficulty thinking, remembering, and planning.  These injuries can be documented by a Clinical Neuropsychological Evaluation.  When an accident or injury results in lasting cognitive compromise, a Neuropsychological Evaluation will provide documentation that aids the court's understanding of its nature, intensity, and prognosis.  Such evaluations are often a highly cost effective means of discriminating between actual and malingered difficulty. 

Emotional Trauma

     Personal injuries can also result in emotional distress, such as anxiety, depression, and/or posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).  Because such injuries are "invisible," it is particularly important  to document them with a Psychological Evaluation.  A Psychological Evaluation can provide documentation of lasting emotional distress that aids in understanding its nature, intensity, and prognosis.  Such evaluations are often a highly cost effective means of discriminating between actual and malingered difficulty.
