Clinical Psychologists undertake medico-legal assessments of clients on request of an attorney or third party. The goal is to measure the psychological impact an accident or trauma has had on a person’s psychological state and the associated effect of this on the person’s daily functioning, relationships and ability to work.

Medico-legal assessment is a complex process that involves the extensive review of records, focused clinical interviews and standardized psychological testing.
