Forensic Evaluations

Forensic psychological evaluations provide objective, legally relevant information to assist the court in making informed decisions. At Clearview Psychological Services, these evaluations are conducted with impartiality and adhere to professional, ethical, and statutory standards. We provide evaluations for competency to stand trial, pre-sentencing mitigation, immigration-related hardship, and other legally defined psychological questions.

Types of Evaluations

Competency to Stand Trial

Competency evaluations at Clearview are grounded in careful clinical judgment, detailed understanding of statutory criteria, and extensive experience working with both adults and juveniles. Reports are written clearly for legal audiences, supported by observable data, and structured to withstand courtroom scrutiny. Referral sources can expect objective findings, prompt communication, reliable turnaround times, and evaluations that are developmentally and culturally attuned.

Pre-Sentencing/Mitigation Evaluation

Our mitigation evaluations provide nuanced and clinically sophisticated context that can help the court understand the psychological, developmental, and environmental factors influencing behavior. We specialize in identifying underlying trauma, neurodevelopmental differences, emotional functioning, and historical adversity — presenting findings in a balanced, evidence-supported format that supports fair sentencing considerations while maintaining objectivity and professional neutrality.
