WHAT ARE MEDICO-LEGAL ASSESSMENTS?

Medico-legal assessments are an intersection between neuropsychology/psychology and the justice system. It requires and involves understanding certain aspects of law in order to be able to provide important information to judges, attorneys and other legal professionals. Both educational and neuropsychological assessments are often done concurrently when such information is needed by the court to make rulings on cases where persons may have been negatively impacted by external events, such as motor vehicle- and pedestrian-vehicle accidents.
