Our Psychologists can provide assessments for both adults and children to assist Criminal Courts. We have a large amount of experience of providing expert witness reports in criminal proceedings and have been providing such reports to the Courts for over 15 years.

Examples of instructions are:

• Risk of Offending
• Personality Disorder assessment
• Psychopathy Assessment
• Mental Health Assessment
• Assessment for Learning Disability
• Assessment for Autistic Spectrum Disorders
• Assessment for Asperger’s Syndrome
• Cognitive Assessment
• Dementia Assessment
• Assessment for PTSD
• Substance Misuse
• Domestic Violence
• Non-accidental injury
• Motivations and Drivers for criminal behaviours
• Capacity Assessment
• Fitness to plead and stand trial

Assessments for Criminal Proceedings will provide an explanatory formulation, where appropriate, that details the individual’s developmental history and relates this to their offending behaviours and risks.

In addition, treatment and placement recommendations can be provided if required.
