The Frye
Center’s psychological
evaluation and consulting
services assist the courts
in making decisions regarding
family, civil or criminal
matters. We ensure that:
- The
summary and conclusions
relate directly to the legal
issues of the case.
- The
relationship between psychological
factors and the legal issues
is described.
- The
findings reflect standard
psychological practice.
- If
review or criticism of other
experts and/or treatment
providers is provided, we
explain any identified problems
with their methods and/or
conclusions.
- Research
supporting our conclusions
is noted.
- Our
recommendations are practical
and are clearly stated without
professional jargon.
- All
assessments are fair, impartial
and objective.
Our conclusions
and recommendations are aimed
at assisting fact finders
in reaching a legal decision.
After completing a forensic
evaluation, we are prepared
to defend the conclusions,
using logical explanations
that are understandable to
people who are not psychologists.
We skillfully explain complex
psychological issues in a
clear and understandable language
to judges and juries, who
are responsible for finding
facts and making decisions.
