How it works

A clear path, step by step.

What happens, how long it takes, and your rights along the way.

The evaluation

Five steps to a signed report

  1. Step 1

    We confirm the details

    We check your language, location, the type of case and your deadline, and send you a written fee estimate.

  2. Step 2

    You review and sign

    You receive a consent form and a release that names who may receive your report, usually your attorney. Take your time and ask questions.

  3. Step 3

    The interview

    One or two meetings, in person or by secure video, usually 2–4 hours in total. We ask about your background, your health, what you have experienced and how you are feeling now. We may use short questionnaires.

  4. Step 4

    The report

    Travis Baird, PMHNP, writes a report describing the findings and their limits. An independent reviewer checks it for accuracy.

  5. Step 5

    Delivery

    The signed report goes only to the people you authorized, within 15 business days after your last interview and receipt of records.

How to prepare

You don't have to be 'ready' to talk about everything. We go at your pace.

  • Photo ID
  • A list of your medications
  • Any medical, counseling or hospital records
  • Your written declaration, if your attorney has one
  • For video: a private room and a charged phone or computer

Your rights

  • You can take breaks, skip a question, or stop at any time.
  • You can ask for a qualified interpreter. Family members do not interpret.
  • You decide who receives your report, and can withdraw that permission in writing for future disclosures.
  • If you pay yourself, you have the right to a Good Faith Estimate of costs.
