COMPETENCY EVALUATIONS
​Competency evaluations are conducted in order to evaluate an individual’s cognitive functioning, memory capacity and reasoning ability. Assessing competency is essential in ensuring that an individual is competent to execute a will, determining medical directives, opening a trust account, and/or establishing a power of attorney. In terms of older adults, competency evaluations assess cognitive deficits to determine the need for a guardian to manage the individual’s financial affairs.
​
INJURY CASES
Not all injuries are physically apparent. Whether due to a traumatic event or traumatic brain injury, the consequences of these experiences can have a detrimental effect on an individual’s life. For example, a brain injury can result in personality changes, mood changes, and deficits in cognitive functioning (i.e., concentration, attention, memory, etc.). Additionally, being exposed to a traumatic event, whether it be a car accident or a mass shooting, can significantly negatively impact social and emotional functioning. Psychological evaluation can assist in assessing these cognitive and psychological changes relative to premorbid functioning.
​
IMMIGRATION EVALUATIONS OF HARDSHIP
Family members, US Citizens (USC) and Legal Permanent Residents (LPR), of individuals facing deportation can experience significant psychological distress and hardship. A hardship evaluation can assist in assessing the current and potential hardship of a USC / LPR.
