Forensic Psychological Evaluations in Dallas, TX
In civil and criminal cases, a defendant’s attorney, the prosecution, and the judge can request a forensic evaluation to examine their client’s mental state at the time of the event.
These evaluations often involve reviewing the defendant’s medical and mental health records and evaluating the defendant, though this serves different purposes in civil and criminal courts.
Civil court typically uses evaluations to determine a defendant’s ability to stand trial while criminal court uses them to determine if a defendant should be held criminally responsible for their actions.
